Correct answer is: 0.2

Explanation:

\(\text{CP. of 40 kg of mixture = Rs. }\Large 25 \times 32 + 15 \times 36\)

\(\text{= Rs }\Large 25 \times 32 + 15 \times 36\)

\(\text{= Rs. }\Large \left(800 + 540\right) \text{= Rs. 1340}\)

\(\text{SP of 40 kg of mixture}\)

\(\text{= Rs}. \left(40 \times 40.2\right) \text{= Rs.1608}\)

\(\text{Profit = Rs. (1608 - 1340) = Rs.268}\)

\(\text{Profit % = } \Large \frac{268}{1340} \times 100 \text{= 20%}\)
