A dealer buys dry fruits at Rs. 100, Rs. 80 and Rs. 60 per kilogram. He mixes them in the ratio 3: 4:5 by weight, and sells at a profit of 50%. At what price per kilogram does he sell the dry fruit?

• Ans 115 because he buys 12 kg at 920 & sold it at 50% profit i.e at (920+460) 1380 so price of 1kg is 1380÷12 = 115.

• let us consider the dry fruits of rs.100*3,80*4,60*5.he sells a profit of 50%
  that means 100+50=150
  (100*3)+(80*4)+(60*5)=910
  910*(150/100)=1380
  we have to find for only 1kg but the above answer is for (3+4+5=12)kg.so it gives the solution 1380/12=115

• S.p=(100+50)% × c.p
  =(150/100) ×920
  =1380
  12kg is sold at 1380
  1kg=1380÷12
  =115.

• (100*3+80*4+60*5)/12=76.6..
  76*150%=114

• Ans 115
  let the common number of ratio be a
  then assuming 1 kg of dry fruits are sold
  3a+4a+5a=1 (sum of weight of all types of dry fruit)
  we get a=1/12
  therefore C.P.= (100*3/12)+(80*4/12)+(60*5/12)=920/12
  profit = 50%
  S.P.=1.5*C.P= 1.5*920/12= 115

• ANS. 115 Rs.
  cost of 12 kgs = (3x100)+(4x80)+(5x60) = 920 Rs.
  sell of 12 kgs. = 920 x 1.5 = 1380 Rs.
  price / kg = 1380/12 = 115 Rs

• 12 kg at 920 & sold it at 50% profit i.e at (920+460) 1380 so price of 1kg is 1380÷12 = 115.

• from given data
  c.p will be calculated as (3*100+4*80+5*60)/12 for 1 kg of dry fruits
  so c.p=920/12
  now s.p=c.p+ 50% of c.p
  s.p=920/12+ 920/12*50/100
  s.p=115

• The tea costs rs920 /12 kg.i.e. 230/3 per kg.he sells it @a profit of 50%
  So s.p. = 230/3+115/3=rs. 115/kg
