Question

A cement company earns a profit of Rs 8 per bag of white cement sold and loss of rs 5 per bag of grey cement sold.

The company sells 3,000 bags white cement and 5,000 bags of grey cement in a month.What is its profit or loss??​

Answer 1

Answer:

Profit per bag of white cement =₹8

Loss per bag of grey cement =₹5

Step-by-step explanation:

no. of bags of white cement sold =3000

no. of bags of grey cement sold =5000

Price of 3000 white bag =8×3000

=24000

Price of 5000 grey bag =5×5000

25000

And this is a lose, because when 24000

is gained as profit, 25000 is lost as loss. So

it is a loss of ₹1000.
