Candy

The price for 1 kg of more expensive candy is 125 CZK. The price for 1 kg of cheaper candy is 100 CZK. We make two different blends of candy. And now. The second blend contains 2 kilograms of more expensive candy and several kg of cheaper candy. The price per 1 kg of this mixture is 110 CZK. Calculate how many kilos of more inexpensive candy contain the second blend.

Final Answer:

x =  3

Step-by-step explanation:


2·125+x·100=110·(2+x)

10x = 30


x = 30/10 = 3

x = 3
