Question

A man buys dry fruits at Rs 100, Rs 80 and Rs 60 per kilogram. He mixes them in the ratio 3:4:5 by weight, and sells at a profit of 50%. At what price per kg does he sell the dry fruits​

Answer 1

Answer:

115 Rs

Step-by-step explanation:

In this questions, we assume the ratio numbers to be the number of respective products,

Like -

Let the weight of each dry fruit be 3x, 4x and 5x

For each price would be -

1)

= 3x*100

= 300x Rs

2)

= 4x*80

= 320x Rs

3)

= 5x*60

= 300x Rs

So,

Total cost price = 300x+320x+300x

= 920x

So total selling price would be = 920x + 50%*920x

= 1380x Rs

Therefore,

Price/Kg = 1380x/12x

= 115Rs
