    Solution :

    Cost of 1 kg super tea mixture

    $=\frac{1(1600)+5(800)+1(1700)}{1+5+1}$

    $=\frac{1600+4000+1700}{7}$

    $=\frac{7300}{7}$

    = 1042.8

    ≈ 1043

    Include of cost blending and packaging.

    So, cost of 1 kg is 1043 + 40 = 1083

    Cost of packaging of 825 gram super tea = $\frac{825}{1000} \times 1083$

                                                                         = 893.47
