Answer» First of all, we use given quantities and PLACE them in the formula, to know the required quantities. Cost of 1 litre milk of 1ST quality = Cost price of dearer = d = Rs. 13.70 Cost of 1 litre milk of 2nd quality = Cost price of cheaper = C = Rs. 11.90 Desired cost of 1 kg of the mixture = Mean price = m = Rs. 12.50 $(\begin{array}{l} {\rm{Required\;RATE}} = \frac{{{\rm{Quantity\;of\;Cheaper}}}}{{{\rm{Quantity\;of\;Dearer}}}} = \frac{{{\rm{d}} - {\rm{m}}}}{{{\rm{m}} - {\rm{c}}}}\\ \Rightarrow \frac{{{\rm{Quantity\;of\;Cheaper}}}}{{{\rm{Quantity\;of\;Dearer}}}} = \frac{{13.70 - 12.50}}{{12.50 - 11.90}} = \frac{{1.20}}{{0.60}} = \frac{2}{1} \end{array})$ ∴ The ratio of the mixture should be 1 : 2 |
