The total cereal mixture is 45 kilograms

Solution:

Given that, cereal mixture contains Almond, Wheat, and Corn in the ratio of 3:5:7

Therefore,

Almond : Wheat : Corn = 3 : 5 : 7

Let the almond present be 3x

Let the wheat present be 5x

Let the corn present be 7x

Therefore,

Total cereal mixture = 3x + 5x + 7x

Total cereal mixture = 15x

Given that mixture contains 9 kg of almond

Almond = 9

We know that,

Almond present = 3x

3x = 9

x = 3

Therefore,

Total cereal mixture = 15x = 15(3) = 45

Thus total cereal mixture is 45 kilograms
