⇒ Total cost of tea = (45 × 10) + (50 × 8)
⇒ Total cost of tea = Rs. 850
⇒ Total weight of tea = 18 kg
⇒ Profit = Rs. 32
⇒ Selling Price of 18 kg tea = 850 + 32
⇒ Selling Price of 18kg tea = Rs. 882
⇒ Selling Price of 1kg tea = 882/18
∴ Selling Price of 1kg tea = Rs. 49
⇒ Total cost of tea = Rs. 850
⇒ Total weight of tea = 18 kg
⇒ Profit = Rs. 32
⇒ Selling Price of 18 kg tea = 850 + 32
⇒ Selling Price of 18kg tea = Rs. 882
⇒ Selling Price of 1kg tea = 882/18
∴ Selling Price of 1kg tea = Rs. 49
