Cost of two different varieties of mangoes = Rs. 100 and Rs. 120 per kg
Ratio of mixture = 4 : 2
Selling price of Mangoes = Rs. 115 per kg
CALCULATION:
Let the shopkeeper bought = 4 + 2 = 6 kg
Cost price of 6 kg mangoes = 4 × 100 + 2 × 120 = Rs. 640
Selling price of 6 kg mangoes = 6 × 115 = Rs. 690
Profit = 690 – 640 = 50
Profit percentage =
= (50/640) × 100
= 7.81%
