A greengrocer makes a profit of 47 on Monday, a loss of 12 on Tuesday, and a loss of 8 on
Wednesday. Express his net profit or loss for these three days as integers.​

Answer 1

CσɾɾєϲԵ ǪυєsԵiօղ :-

• A greengrocer makes a profit of 47 rupees on Monday, a loss of 12 rupees on Tuesday, and loss of 8 rupees on Wednesday. Find his net profit or loss in 3 days as integers.

Giѵєղ :-

• Profit earned on Monday = Rs.47

• Loss incurred on Tuesday = Rs.12

• Loss incurred on Wednesday = Rs.8

Tσ Fiɳ∂ :-

• Net profit or loss for these three days.

SσӀυԵiօղ :-

$\red{★}$The profit earned by the greengrocer is denoted as positive (+) sign and the loss incurred by him is denoted by negative (-) sign.

So,

$\pink{★}$ Profit earned on Monday = ( + 47/)

$\pink{★}$ Loss incurred on Tuesday = ( -12 )

$\pink{★}$ Loss incurred on Wednesday = ( -8 )

Therefore his net profit or loss will be as :-

${\bf\purple{ ➯\:( + 47) + ( - 12) + ( - 8)}}$

${\bf\purple{➯\:47 - (12 + 8)}}$

${\bf\purple{➯\: 47 - 20}}$

${\bf\purple{➯\: + 27}}$

$\large{\boxed{{\bf{∴So \: his \: net \: profit \: = Rs.27}}}}$

Answer 2

$\huge\frak{\underline{\underline{\red{Solution }}}}$

• Profit earned on Monday = ( + 47/)

• Loss incurred on Tuesday = ( -12 )

• Loss incurred on Wednesday = ( -8 )

Therefore his net profit or loss will be as :-

➡ 47 + (-12) + (-8)

➡ 47 - (12+8)

➡ 47 - 20

➡ +27

☄Net profit = ₹27
