A) Rs. 15.30
B) Rs. 19.18
C) Rs. 17.40
D) Rs. 18.66
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Cost price of 80 kg of 1st type sugar \[\text{=Rs}\text{.(13}\text{.50}\times \text{80)=Rs}\text{. 1080}\] Cost price of 120 kg of \[\text{I}{{\text{I}}^{\text{nd}}}\] type sugar \[\text{=Rs}\text{. (16}\times \text{120)=Rs}\text{. 1920}\] \[\therefore \] Total cost price\[\text{= Rs}\text{. (1920+1080})=\text{Rs}.3000\] \[\text{Gain }\!\!%\!\!\text{ = 16 }\!\!%\!\!\text{ }\] \[\text{Now, S}\text{.P=}\left( \frac{100+Gain%}{100} \right)\times C.P\] \[=\frac{116}{100}\times 3000=Rs.3480\] i.e. Total selling price of 200 kg sugar \[=Rs.3480\] \[\therefore \] S.P. of \[1\text{ kg}\] sugar \[\text{=Rs}\text{.}\left( \frac{\text{3480}}{\text{200}} \right)\text{=Rs}\text{.17}\text{.40}\]
