A spice merchant bought 18 kg of Turmeric at ₹320/kg and 28 kg of Coriander at ₹260/kg. He mixed them. Due to market conditions, he had to sell the mixture at ₹290/kg. Calculate the loss or gain.

Question

Accepted Answer

1. **Total cost:** Turmeric = $18	imes320=5760$. Coriander = $28	imes260=7280$. So cost = $5760+7280=13040$.  
2. **Total weight:** $18+28=46$ kg. Selling price = ₹290/kg. Revenue = $46	imes290=13340$.  
3. **Profit:** $13340-13040=300$. So there is a **profit of ₹300**.
