Answer 2

Answer:

He gets profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

No.of basmati rice bags sells=3000

No.of non basmati rice bags sells=5000

profit on selling basmati rice =3000×10

=30000

loss on selling non basmati rice =5000×5

=25000

profit of the month to the merchant =30000-25000

=5000

therefore, the profit of the merchant of the month is ₹5000
