Quantity of tea taken that was worth Rs.240 = 10 kg
The mixture to be produced is of Rs 260 per kg
Total quantity of tea that will be produced after mix = (10 + x) kg
From the given data the equation can be written as
300x + 240 (10) = 260(10 + x)
➠ 300x + 2400 = 260x + 2600
➠ 40x = 200
➠ X = 5
Solving the above, we get x = 5.
