Given:
Price of first type wheat = 62 per kg
Price of second type wheat = 72 per kg
Price of mixture = Rs. 64 per kg
Concept used:
Calculations: Let the quantity of the first type of wheat be x kg and the second type of wheat be y kg
Total price of first type of wheat
=62×x=62x The total price of the second type of wheat
=72×y=72y Total quantity of mixture
=x+y The total price of the mixture
=64(x+y) According to the question,
⇒62x+72y=64(x+y) ⇒62x+72y=64x+64y ⇒2x=8y ⇒x/y=4/1
∴ The required ratio is 4 ∶ 1
