Correct option is D
Given:
Price of first type of rice = Rs. 15.20/kg
Price of second type of rice = Rs. 18.10/kg
Price of the mixture = Rs. 16.30/kg
Formula Used:
Price per kg=Total WeightTotal Cost
Solution:
Let's assume we mix x kg of rice at Rs. 15.20/kg with y kg of rice at Rs. 18.10/kg.
Cost of x kg of rice = 15.20x
Cost of y kg of rice = 18.10y
Total cost = 15.20x + 18.10y
Total weight = x + y
Price per kg=Total WeightTotal Cost
16.30=x+y15.20x+18.10y
16.30x+16.30y=15.20x+18.10y
1.10x=1.80y
yx=1.101.80yx=1118
Therefore, the ratio of the two types of rice is 18:11.
