Correct Answer: 137
Solution :
Given: If two qualities of pulses 'X' and 'Y' of prices Rs. 100 and Rs. 150 per kg are mixed in a ratio of 7 : 20.
So, the price of the mixture,
= $\frac{(100×7)+(150×20)}{(7+20)}$
= $\frac{(700+3000)}{27}$
= $\frac{3700}{27}$
= Rs. 137.04 $\approx$ Rs. 137
Hence, the correct answer is 137.
