Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The price of this other quality of wheat is Rs. 34.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Quantity of wheat = 11 kg

Amount earned = Rs. 275

So, the cost of each kg wheat is given by

$\dfrac{275}{11}=Rs.\ 25$

And it mixes with other quality of wheat in the ratio 4:5

Price of mixture = RS. 30 per kg.

So, using "Mixture and Allegation", we get that

Ist type          IInd type

  25                   x

             30

-------------------------------

   x-30     :      30-25

   x-30     :         5

So, it becomes,

$\dfrac{x-30}{5}=\dfrac{4}{5}\\\\x-30=4\\\\x=30+4\\\\x=Rs.\ 34$

Hence, the price of this other quality of wheat is Rs. 34.
