Answers (1)

Given: Two varieties of tea costing her Rs 234 and Rs 130 per kg.
Sum of ratios = Rs. 234+130 per kg = Rs. 364 per kg

Total weight of the mixture =84 kg
Weight of each variety of tea = \frac{234 \text { per } \mathrm{kg}}{364 \text { per } \mathrm{kg}} \times 84 \mathrm{~kg}=54 \mathrm{~kg} and \frac{130 \text { per } \mathrm{kg}}{364 \text { per } \mathrm{kg}} \times 84 \mathrm{~kg}=30 \mathrm{~kg}
