Let’s use weighted averages.... total profit we need 7500 Cents
Cost should be a little more than 58 per Jar. Why?
100 at 65 and 200 at 55 to weighted average will be near 55... and it should be approximately twice as near... so between 58 to 65.. Distance is 7... between 58 and 55 distance is 3... we can do it 3.5 and 5.5 but let’s avoid decimals...
Now avg is 58 we need profit of 7500 means 7500/300 around 25... SP.. 58 + 25 =83.. total sp 24900.. now remember we took average 58.. but it’s a little more than 58 so a little more than 24900 is 25000 only in option E...

profit required = 75$
100 jars cost 65¢ each to make: 100 X 65¢ = 65$
200 jars cost 55¢ each to make: 200 X 55¢ = 110$
total cost to make = 175$
SP = CP + Profit
SP = 175$ + 75$
SP = 250$
option E
