A grocery store manager mixes 6 kg of Cilantro worth Rs. 30 per kg with 9 kg of Cilantro worth Rs. 40 per kg. At what rate he must sell the mixture to gain 30%?

  • 38.4
  • 42.6
  • 46.8
  • 50
Answer- C

Total cost price of (6+9)15 kg of mixture = (6*30+9*40)

= 180+360

= Rs. 540

Cost Price per kg of mixture = 540/15 = Rs. 36 per kg

Now, Required gain = 30%

Required selling price per kg of mixture = 130/100 ∗36 = Rs. 46.8 per kg
