Step-by-step explanation:

(a)- Profit on one white cement bag = ₹ 8

loss on one grey cement bag = ₹ – 5

Profit on 3,000 bags of white cement

= ₹ (8 × 3,000) = ₹ 24,000

Loss on 5,000 bags of grey cement

= ₹ (-5 × 5000) = – ₹ 25,000

Total loss = – ₹ 25,000 + ₹ 24,000

= – ₹ 1000 i.e. ₹ 1000

Selling price of grey bags at a loss of ₹ 5

= ₹ (5 × 6,400) – ₹ 32,000

For no profit and no loss, the selling price of white bags = ₹ 32,000

Rate of selling price of white bags at a profit of ₹ 8 per bag.

32000÷8

Hence, the required number of bags = 4,000
