Let the rate of second quality be x Rs. per kg Ratio $=8: 7$ $(9.30)(8)+(8)(7)=$ Total rate of the mixture of 2nd quality wheat Total no. of kg’s $=7+8=15$ $\begin{aligned} &\frac{(9.30)(8)+7 \mathrm{x}}{15}=10 \\ &7 \mathrm{x}=75.6\end{aligned}$ Therefore, rate of second quality of wheat. $\mathrm{x}=10.8$
