Solution

S.P. of mixture = Rs. 71.28

Profit % = 8%

=> C.P. of mixture = $\frac{100}{108} \times 71.28$

= Rs. 66 per litre

Let Martina mix the juice in the ratio = $x : y$

Acc to ques,

=> $52x + 74y = 66 (x + y)$

=> $52x + 74y = 66x + 66y$

=> $14x = 8y$

=> $\frac{x}{y} = \frac{8}{14} = \frac{4}{7}$

$\therefore$ Martine should mix the juice in the ratio = 4 : 7
