10 kg बेहतर किस्म वाले चावल में 5 kg घटिया किस्म का चावल मिला दिया जाता हैं। बेहतर किस्म और घटिया किस्म वाले चावल की कीमतें क्रमश: ₹85 और ₹46 हैं मिश्रण का प्रति kg औसत मूल्य ज्ञात कीजिए।
Detailed Solution & Logic
Correct Answer:
₹72
Step 1: Total cost
Superior rice cost = $10 \times 85 = 850$
Inferior rice cost = $5 \times 46 = 230$
Total cost = $850 + 230 = 1080$
Step 2: Total quantity
$10 + 5 = 15$ kg
Step 3: Average price
$\frac{1080}{15} = 72$
Final Answer: ₹72
