(D) Total cost price of $30\, Kg$ wheat $= 30 	imes 45 = ₹ 1350$.To make an overall profit of $25\%$,the total selling price must be $= 1350 	imes 1.25 = ₹ 1687.50$.Quantity sold initially $= 40\% 	ext{ of } 30\, Kg = 12\, Kg$.Selling price of $12\, Kg$ wheat $= 12 	imes 50 = ₹ 600$.Remaining quantity $= 30 - 12 = 18\, Kg$.Required selling price for the remaining $18\, Kg = 1687.50 - 600 = ₹ 1087.50$.Selling price per $Kg$ for the remaining quantity $= \frac{1087.50}{18} \approx ₹ 60.41$.Rounding to the nearest option,the price is $₹ 60$ per $Kg$.
