Answer: company having loss of Rs.100
Step-by-step explanation: profit of Rs. 8 per bag of white cement sold.
now, company sells 3,000 bags of white cement in a month. So,
Total earn by company is, 3000×8=24,000 Rs
a cement company loss of Rs. 5 per bag or grey cement sold.
now company sells 5000 bags of grey cement in a month. So,
Total Loss by company is, 5000×5=25,000 Rs
Now, the lossing parts is greater than the earning part. So company having loss
i.e, 24000−25000=−100<0
So, company having loss of Rs.100
Answer:
profit at white cement bag= rs 8 per bag
number of white cement bags sold= 3,000
so, profit on selling 3000 wh cement bag= 3000*8=rs24000
loss at grey cement bag= rs 5 per bag
number of gc bag sold = 5000
so , loss on grey cement bags= 5000*5
=rs25000
the company had the loss of 25000 and profit of 24000 . so there is a loss of rs 1000( 25000-24000)
