      and Rs. ‘x’/kg are mixed in the ratio 4:3:5. If the final mixture is worth Rs. 33 per kg, then determine the value of x.

      D 27.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let the quantities be 4y, 3y, and 5y.

      So, 28 × 4y + 32 × 3y + x × 5y = 33 × 12y

      ⇒ 112 + 96 + 5x = 396

      ⇒ 5x = 188

      ⇒ x = 37.6
