Answer 1

the answer is 40.927
600.10x40/586.50

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price of milk/litre = 586.50/85 = 6.9rs

total gain is = 0.40*85 = 34rs

so, cost price is = S.P - gain = 586.50-34 = 552.50rs

now , if the total selling price is 600.10rs

so, total gain would be = 600.10-552.50=47.6rs

so, gain/litre = 47.6/85 = 0.56rs = 56paise/litre
