Answer 1

Answer:

6.66%

Step-by-step explanation:

bcoz of the ratio of 3:2 on both rice's

total amount of rise of ₹35 per kg =₹105

total amount of rise of ₹45 per kg =₹90

cost price = 105 + 90 / 3+2 =195/5=₹ 39/kg

selling price= ₹41.6/kg

gain = 41.6 - 39.0

= ₹2.6

gain percent= 2.6 * 100 / 39 = 6.66%
