i)he sells 100kg of rice and 175kg of wheat in a month. what is his profit or loss.
ii)how many kilograms of rice he must sell to earn a profit of $2000 on the whole,if the number of kilograms of wheat sold during the same period is 400​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Loss
2. 900kg

Step-by-step explanation:

1. profit on rice = 100 × $6

= $600

loss on rice = 175 × $4

= $700

profit = $600 - $700

= -$100

= No profit

Loss = $700 - 600

= $100

= loss of $700

2. loss on wheat = 400 × $4

= $1600

total money = $1600 + $2000

= $3600

kilograms of rice he has to sell = $3600 ÷ $4

= 900

900 kilograms of rice he has to sell.
