    Given :- cost of the total production by companies = $ 25
    For A company ,
    Ratio of total production = 5 , Ratio of total production of item I = 2
    % of total production produced by A = 15%
    For C company ,
    Ratio of total production = 5 , Ratio of total production of item I = 4
    % of total production produced by C = 22%
    Required Total cost = cost of the production of item I by company A + cost of the production of item I by company C

    Correct Option: B

    Given :- cost of the total production by companies = $ 25
    For A company ,
    Ratio of total production = 5 , Ratio of total production of item I = 2
    % of total production produced by A = 15%

    Total cost of production = Cost of production of item I by company A + Cost of production of item II by company B

    Correct Option: A

    Given :- Cost of production of item I by company A

    = 2x15x25= 1.5 million
    5100

    Cost of production of item II by company B
    = 2x11x25= 1.1 million
    5100

    Total cost of production = Cost of production of item I by company A + Cost of production of item II by company B
    = 1.5 + 1.1 = $ 2.6 million
