Answer»

LET the quantity sold at 15% profit be x kg. Then the quantity sold at 5% loss will be (200 –x) kg

Let us consider price of the rice be RS.1 per kg

Then the price of x kg of rice = Rs. x and price of (200 – x) kg rice = Rs. (200 – x)

⇒ 15% profit of x + 5% loss of (200 – x) = 10% profit of 200

⇒ 15x/100 - 10 + 5x/100 = 20

⇒ 20x/100 = 30

⇒ x = 150 kg

⇒ 200 – x = 200 – 150 = 50 kg

∴ Quantity sold at 15% profit = 150 kg and the quantity sold at 5% loss = 50 kg
