Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 20%

Given:

Price of Bajra I = Rs. 45 per Kg

Price of Bajra II = Rs. 55 per Kg

Selling price of mixture = Rs. 60 per Kg

Calculation:

Cost price of a mixture = [45(1) + 55(1)]/(1 + 1)

⇒ (45 + 55)/2

⇒ 50

Selling price = Rs.60

Profit = Rs. 60 – Rs.50

⇒ Rs.10

Profit% = [(10/50) × 100]%

⇒ 20%
