Related for Demai 7:7

מֵאָה טֶבֶל מֵאָה חֻלִּין, נוֹטֵל מֵאָה וְאֶחָד. מֵאָה טֶבֶל מֵאָה מַעֲשֵׂר, נוֹטֵל מֵאָה וְאֶחָד. מֵאָה חֻלִּין מְתֻקָּנִים מֵאָה מַעֲשֵׂר, נוֹטֵל מֵאָה וָעֶשֶׂר. מֵאָה טֶבֶל תִּשְׁעִים מַעֲשֵׂר, תִּשְׁעִים טֶבֶל וּשְׁמוֹנִים מַעֲשֵׂר, לֹא הִפְסִיד כְּלוּם. זֶה הַכְּלָל, כָּל זְמַן שֶׁהַטֶּבֶל מְרֻבֶּה, לֹא הִפְסִיד כְּלוּם:

[If there is a mixture of] one hundred untithed and one hundred <i>Chulin</i> [non-sacred produce], he takes one hundred and one. [If there is a mixture of] one hundred untithed and one hundred tithes, he takes one hundred and one. [If there is a mixture of] one hundred non-sacral that have been fixed [tithed] and one hundred tithes, he takes one hundred and ten. [If there is a mixture of] one hundred untithed and ninety tithes, or ninety untithed and eighty tithes, he has lost nothing. This is the rule: as long as the untithed part is the greater part, he has lost nothing.

Tosefta Demai

If he had in his hand a basket of fruits that were not tithed, he takes two ninths of this one and one ninth of that one. Of the one ninth, whether untithed produce predominated over chullin produce, or vice-versa, he takes all the chullin according to the proper amount of terumat ma'aser that is in the untithed produce. Whether the ma'aser tevel predominated over the chullin, or vice-versa, he takes all the chullin according to the proper amount of terumat ma'aser that represents the tithes of the untithed produce. [If he had] 180 untithed produce, he takes 92 less one tenth. [If he had] 100 [of untithed produce and desires to] take tithes, he takes 93 less two tenths from this, and the remainder according to his calculation.
