उत्तर

Let quantity of first variety and second variety of tea be 5x kg and 4x kg respectively.

Cost of first variety of tea = ₹ (200 × 5x) = ₹ 1000x

Cost of second variety of tea = ₹ (300 × 4x) = ₹ 1200x

Total cost price of tea = ₹ (1000x + 1200x) = ₹ 2200x

Selling price of tea = ₹ (9x × 275) = ₹ 2475x

Here, S.P. > C.P.

Therefore, there is a profit of = ₹ (2475x – 2200x) = ₹ 275x

Profit % = `"Profit"/"C.P." xx 100 = (275x)/(2200x) xx 100` = 12.5%
