A person bought 60 quintals of rice of two different sorts for Rs. 4642·50. The better sort costs Rs. 80 per quintal and the worse Rs. 75·50 per quintal. How many quintals were there of each sort ?

1. 25 quintals, 35 quintals
2. 20 quintals, 40 quintals
3. 32 quintals, 28 quintals
4. None of these

According to question ,

Per quintal cost of two different sorts of rice =	4642·50
	60

Per quintal cost of two different sorts of rice = Rs. 77·375 per quintal

Proportion =	70·50 – 77·375
	77·375 – 80

Required Proportion =	1·875	= 5 : 7
	2·625

The quantity of better sort =	60	× 5 = 25 quintals
	12

And the quantity of worse sort =	60	× 7 = 35 quintals.
