A dealer buys dry fruit at Rs. 100, Rs. 90 and Rs. 70 per kg. He mixes them in the ratio 2:3:4 by weight and sells them at a profit of 50%. At what price does he sell the dry fruit (Rs. per kg)?

• 125/-
  The price of mixture is = (2/9*100)+(3/9*90)+(4/9*70)
  = 250/3 /-
  
  He increased 50% of 250/3
  = 250/3*50/100
  = 125/3
  
  Tot=>(250/3)+(125/3)=125/-

• total cp =100*2 + 90*3 + 70*4 = 750
  sp = profit + cp = 1125
  but this sp is of (2+3+4 = 9) 9kg dry fruit
  therefore per kg price = 1125 / 9 = 125

• SP=((100+gain%)/100)*CP
  CP=250/3
  SP=(150/100)*(250/3)
  SP=125

• see accordng to the given question
  dealer buys dry fruit at rs.100,90,and 70
  we will ind the mixture price=(2/9*100)+(3/9*90)+(4/9*70)
  = 250/3
  He increased 50% of 250/3
  = 250/3*50/100
  = 125/3
  
  Tot=>(250/3)+(125/3)=125/-

• total amount with 50% profit =(200x+270x+280x) +50%(200x+270x+280x)=1125x
  (2x+3x+4x)y=1125x
  y=125
  ans is 125

• total C.P.=(100+70+90)
  =260
  as the fruits are mixed in the ratio by the weight so no need to consider the ratio
  SP=(100+50)%ofCP
  =150/100*260
  =390 rs.

• =125/kg
  fruits are mixed in the ratio of 2:3:4 by weight
  cost
  2*100=200rs
  90*3=270
  70*4=280
  total=750rs for 9kg
  sells at profit of 50% means.........750+375=1125rs for 9kg
  so for 1kg=125rs
