Selling price of final mixture = Rs. 324/kg and profit % = 20% => Cost price = $$324 imesfrac{100}{(100+20)}=324 imesfrac{5}{6}=Rs.$$ $$270$$ Let the ratio in which tea at Rs. 240/kg and Rs. 280/kg is mixed be $$x:y$$ => $$240x+280y=270(x+y)$$ => $$24x+28y=27x+27y$$ => $$27x-24x=28y-27y$$ => $$3x=y$$ => $$frac{x}{y}=frac{1}{3}$$ => Ans - (C)
