Grade A sugar costs £75 per kg and grade B sugar costs £50 per kg. Anne mixed the two grades and sold the mixture at £72 per kg. I'm doing so she made a 20% profit. In what ratio did she mix them?

The ratios must be 88% of grade A sugar and 12% of grade B sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

On the grade A every kg costs £75, while on the grade B every kg costs  £50. The final mixture we want to make needs to cost  £72 per kg. We will sum a certain mass of grade A, "x", with a certain mass of grade B, "y". The sum of these masses must be equal to 1 kg. So we have:

Since we want the final mixture to cost  £72, we need to satisfy:

Solving the system of equation will reveal the ration that must be used.

The ratios must be 88% of grade A sugar and 12% of grade B sugar.
