Step-by-step explanation:
total cp for 60kg butter is 60×150= Rs 9000
for 20kg cp is 20×150=Rs 3000
sp of 20 kg = cp-loss = 3000 - (6÷100)×3000= Rs 2820
total sp= cp+ profit
total sp = 9000+ (10÷100)×9000=9900
total sp = 9900- 2820 = Rs 7080
remaining butter should be sold at a price of Rs 7080 for 40kg
for 1kg = 7080÷40= Rs 177
