Problema Solution
A grain dealer mixed 100 kilos of corn and rice, which he sold at P31/kilo. If corn sells at
P25/kilo and rice sells at P40/kilo, how many kilos of each did he mix?
Answer provided by our tutors
Corn: x
Rice: y
So
x+y=100
25x+40y=31*100
So
x=60
y=40
There are 60 kilos corn and 40 kilos rice
