Step 1: Understand the problem and define variables.
Let the cost of Wairimu beans be CW=Ksh. 4,000C_W = \text{Ksh. } 4,000 per bag.
Let the cost of Yellow Green beans be CYG=Ksh. 3,500C_{YG} = \text{Ksh. } 3,500 per bag.

a) Find the ratio a:ba:b such that the cost of the mixture is Ksh. 3,835 per bag.
Let aa be the number of bags of Wairimu and bb be the number of bags of Yellow Green.
The total cost of the mixture is a×CW+b×CYGa \times C_W + b \times C_{YG}.
The total number of bags is $
