2Q. A packet of 700gm dry fruit cost Rs 72. It contains come cashew nuts and some almonds. If cashew nuts costs Rs 96/-Kg & almonds cost Rs 112/-Kg. Then calculate the quantity of almond in that packet?

a.) 200gm
b.) 400gm
c.) 300gm
d.) 500gm

• Let quantity of cashew nuts=x kg and almind=y kg, then x + y = 0.7 —(i) and
  96x + 112y = 72 —(ii)
  Solving eqn. (i) & (ii), we get x=0.4, y=0.3
  Therefore, quantity of almond = 0.3kg = 300 gm.
