6 kg sugar costing Rs. 10/kg is mixed with 4 kg sugar costing Rs. 15/kg. What is the average cost of the mixture per kilogram?
1). Rs. 12
2). Rs. 15
3). Rs. 10
4). Rs. 13
Quantity of sugar = 6 kg
Price of sugar per kg = Rs. 10
∴ Total cost = 10 × 6 = Rs. 60
Another quantity of sugar = 4 kg
Price of sugar per kg = Rs. 15
∴ Total cost = 15 × 4 = Rs. 60
⇒ Total cost of 10 kg of sugar = 60 + 60 = Rs. 120
⇒ Cost per kilogram = 120/10 = Rs. 12 per kilogram
