60 kgs of a certain variety of rice at 32 per kg is mixed with 48 kgs of another variety of rice and the mixture is sold at the average price of 28 per kg.If there be no profit or loss due to the new sale price, then the price of the second variety of rice is
Price of 61 kgs of certain variety of rice at 32 per kg = (60)(32)
Price of 48 kgs of another variety of rice at x per kg = 48x
As there is no profit or loss,
(60) (32) + 48x = (108)(28)Â
Divide by '48' on both sides
40 + x = 63
x = 23
Hence, option CÂ is the correct answer.
