200 packets of 1/2 Kg each premium sugar @Rs.30 per kg
300 packets of 1kg each (300 kg) regular sugar @Rs.20 per kg
No profit in selling premium sugar at it's cost price
Profit in selling regular sugar selling = (30-20)*300 = Rs.3000
Total Cost = 200*(1/2)*30 + 300*1*20 = 3000+6000 = 9000
Profit percentage = (3000/9000)*100 = 33.33
Answer: Option C

Total Premium sugar = 200 * 1/2kg = 100 kg
Total Price = 100 * Rs 30 = Rs 3000
Total Regular sugar = 300 * 1kg = 300 kg
Total Price = 300 * Rs 20 = Rs 6000
Total CP = 3000+ 6000 = Rs 9000
If he sells the total quantity at the price of the Premium sugar @30/kg
Total SP = Total quantity * Premium price
=> Total SP = (300 + 100) * 30 = Rs 12000
Profit % = (SP - CP)/CP = (12000 - 9000)/9000 = 33.33%
Option C
Total Price = 100 * Rs 30 = Rs 3000
Total Regular sugar = 300 * 1kg = 300 kg
Total Price = 300 * Rs 20 = Rs 6000
Total CP = 3000+ 6000 = Rs 9000
If he sells the total quantity at the price of the Premium sugar @30/kg
Total SP = Total quantity * Premium price
=> Total SP = (300 + 100) * 30 = Rs 12000
Profit % = (SP - CP)/CP = (12000 - 9000)/9000 = 33.33%
Option C
