In what ratio must a shopkeeper mix two kinds of rice ₹80 per kg and ₹120 per kg respectively so as to get a mixture at ₹100 per kg? |
2 : 3 3 : 4 2 : 1 1 : 1 |
1 : 1 |
The correct answer is Option (4) → 1 : 1 $\text{Prices: } 80,\; 120,\; \text{Mean} = 100$ $\text{Ratio} = (120 - 100) : (100 - 80)$ $= 20 : 20 = 1 : 1$ The required ratio is $1 : 1$. |
