The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

To solve the problem of finding the total weight of Millets and Carbohydrates sold last month, we need to add the weights of Millets (M) and Carbohydrates (C) as given in the data.
From the data:
  • Millets (M) = 500 kg
  • Carbohydrates (C) = 600 kg
Now, calculate the total weight:

Total weight = Weight of Millets + Weight of Carbohydrates

Total weight = 500 kg + 600 kg = 1100 kg

Thus, the total weight of Millets and Carbohydrates sold last month is 1100 kg.

The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

To determine the total revenue from the sales of Millets and Protein supplements, let's calculate the revenue for each and sum them up. Revenue is calculated as the product of the selling price per kilogram and the quantity sold.

Millets (M): 

  • Selling Price per kg = ₹50
  • Quantity = 500 kg
  • Revenue from Millets = 500 kg × ₹50/kg = ₹25,000

Protein Supplements (P):

  • Selling Price per kg = ₹100
  • Quantity = 300 kg
  • Revenue from Protein Supplements = 300 kg × ₹100/kg = ₹30,000

Total Revenue: ₹25,000 (Millets) + ₹30,000 (Protein Supplements) = ₹55,000

Hence, the total revenue from the sales of Millets and Protein supplements is ₹55,000.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

To find the total profit earned from the sale of Vitamin supplements, we need to calculate the difference between the selling price and the cost price, per kilogram, and then multiply it by the total kilograms sold.

Step 1: Determine the profit per kg of Vitamin supplements: 
Cost Price per kg = ₹60
Selling Price per kg = ₹80
Profit per kg = Selling Price - Cost Price = ₹80 - ₹60 = ₹20

Step 2: Calculate the total profit for 200 kg:
Total Profit = Profit per kg × Quantity sold = ₹20/kg × 200 kg = ₹4000

Therefore, the total profit earned from the sale of Vitamin supplements is ₹4000.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

To find the total cost of Carbohydrates and Fats purchased by the store, we need to calculate the cost for each category and sum them up. The cost calculation for each category is given by multiplying the quantity sold by unit cost price.

Step 1: Calculate the cost of Carbohydrates 

Quantity of Carbohydrates (C) = 600 kg
Cost price per kg = ₹80

Total Cost of Carbohydrates = Quantity × Cost price per kg

\( Total\ Cost\ of\ Carbohydrates = 600 \times 80 = ₹48000 \)

Step 2: Calculate the cost of Fats

Quantity of Fats (F) = 100 kg
Cost price per kg = ₹120

Total Cost of Fats = Quantity × Cost price per kg

\( Total\ Cost\ of\ Fats = 100 \times 120 = ₹12000 \)

Step 3: Calculate the total cost of Carbohydrates and Fats

Total Cost = Total Cost of Carbohydrates + Total Cost of Fats

\( Total\ Cost = 48000 + 12000 = ₹60000 \)

The calculated total cost is ₹60000. However, the given correct answer is ₹72000. Please verify the calculations or provided options.

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

To determine what percentage of the total revenue was generated by the sale of Mixed Nuts, we must first calculate the revenue from each category and then find the percentage contribution of Mixed Nuts to the overall revenue.

Step 1: Calculate the revenue from each category.

  • Millets (M):
    Revenue = 500 kg × 50/kg = 25,000
  • Protein supplements (P):
    Revenue = 300 kg × 100/kg = 30,000
  • Vitamin supplements (V):
    Revenue = 200 kg × 80/kg = 16,000
  • Carbohydrates (C):
    Revenue = 600 kg × 100/kg = 60,000
  • Fats (F):
    Revenue = 100 kg × 150/kg = 15,000
  • Mixed Nuts (N):
    Revenue = 50 kg × 130/kg = 6,500

Step 2: Calculate the total revenue.

Total Revenue = 25,000 + 30,000 + 16,000 + 60,000 + 15,000 + 6,500 = 152,500

Step 3: Calculate the percentage contribution of Mixed Nuts.

Percentage from Mixed Nuts = (Revenue from Mixed Nuts / Total Revenue) × 100
= (6,500 / 152,500) × 100 ≈ 4.26%

Therefore, the closest percentage to the given options is 5%.
