Question

Answer 1

Hi friend
Your answer is here

Total profit on 1 pen=80 paise
Total loss on 1 pencil=40 pause
Total pens sold=45
Total pencils sold=60
Total gain=80×45=3600 paise
Total loss=40×60=2400paise

Gain>loss
So.the shopkeeper makes a profit
Profit=gain-loss
=3600-2400
. =1200 paise=12 rupees
