1.	11. If the price of 2 kg almonds is equal to the price of 8 kgwalnut and the price of 5 kg almonds and 16 kg walnut is1080, then what is the price per kg of almonds?
Answer» Let the cost of 1 kg of Almond = Rs x and the cost of 1 kg of walnut = Rs y therefore, 2x= 8y = > x = 8y/2 = 4y = > 5 kg of Almond = 5 (4y) = 20y 5kg almond and 16 kg of Walnut is Rs 1080 => 20 y + 16 y = Rs 1080 = > 36 y = Rs 1080 => y = 1080/36 = Rs 30 => 1 kg almond = 4 kg of walut = Rs 30 * 4 = Rs 120 Therefore, the cost of 1 kg of almond = Rs 120

Answer»

Let the cost of 1 kg of Almond = Rs x

and the cost of 1 kg of walnut = Rs y

therefore, 2x= 8y

= > x = 8y/2 = 4y

= > 5 kg of Almond = 5 (4y) = 20y

5kg almond and 16 kg of Walnut is Rs 1080

=> 20 y + 16 y = Rs 1080

= > 36 y = Rs 1080

=> y = 1080/36 = Rs 30

=> 1 kg almond = 4 kg of walut = Rs 30 * 4 = Rs 120

Therefore, the cost of 1 kg of almond = Rs 120
