(D) Total Cost Price $(C.P.)$ of wheat $= 30 	imes 45 = ₹ 1350$.To make an overall profit of $25\%$,the total Selling Price $(S.P.)$ should be $= 1350 	imes \frac{125}{100} = 1350 	imes 1.25 = ₹ 1687.5$.Quantity sold first $= 40\% 	ext{ of } 30 	ext{ kg} = 12 	ext{ kg}$.$S.P.$ of $12 	ext{ kg} = 12 	imes 50 = ₹ 600$.Remaining quantity $= 30 - 12 = 18 	ext{ kg}$.Required $S.P.$ for the remaining $18 	ext{ kg} = 1687.5 - 600 = ₹ 1087.5$.Price per $	ext{kg}$ for the remaining quantity $= \frac{1087.5}{18} \approx ₹ 60.42$.Rounding to the nearest given option,the answer is $₹ 60$.
