Find the ratio in which tomatoes worth ₹45/kg can be mixed with tomatoes worth ₹60/kg, so that the mixture will be worth ₹54/kg.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4, i.e. 2 : 3.
Ratio = (Costlier − Mean) : (Mean − Cheaper)
Costlier = 60, Cheaper = 45, Mean = 54
Ratio = (60 − 54) : (54 − 45) = 6 : 9 = 2 : 3
