Answer 1

Let the quantities be 3x kg and 5x kg
Cost price of one kg tea leaves=200
So cp for 3x kg =600x
Cp for 5x teq dust=120(5x)
=600x
Profit on leaves=600x(10%)
=60x
Profit on tea dust 15% of 600x
=90x
Sp of all tea leaves=660x
Sp of all tea dust=690x
Total sp=27000
660x+690x=27000
1350x=27000
x=200
So reqd quantities are 600kg and 1000kg
