Question

What is the total of the cost of production of item I by company A and the cost of production of item II by company B?

• A. \rupee 2.6 crore
• B. \rupee 26 lakh
• C. \rupee 3.35 crore
• D. \rupee 33.65 lakh
  % Correct answer

Hint:

Use each company’s percentage and item ratio to compute cost of items and sum as required.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Company A: 15% of 25 crore = \rupee 3.75 crore
Item I ratio for A = 2:3 ⇒ Item I = \(\frac{2}{5} \times 3.75 = \rupee 1.5\) crore
Company B: 11% of 25 crore = \rupee 2.75 crore
Item II ratio for B = 3:2 ⇒ Item II = \(\frac{3}{5} \times 2.75 = \rupee 1.65\) crore
Total cost = \(1.5 + 1.1 = {\rupee 2.6 \text{ crore}}\)
