Step-by-step explanation:
no. of pencils sold =35
profit per pencil = 1
Total profit from pencils = 35x1 = 35
loss per eraser = 0.25 rupee
no. of erasers sold on this day = 35/0.25
=140 erasers
2ND PART
profit = 25
no. of erasers sold =. 100
total loss in erasers = 100x0.25=25
profit by pencils must be 50 to make total profit 25 because there is a loss in erasers
profit in each pencil = 1
no . of pencils sold = 25
Thanks hope it helps
