Question

a shopkeeper earns a profit of rs 5 by selling a notebook and incurs a loss of 50 paise per pencil and eraser while selling these from old stock on a particular day she earns a profit of 30 . If she sold 10 notebooks and the numbers of pencil and erasers she sold are in the ratio 6:4 find the number of pencil and eraser sold on that day​

Answer 1

Answer:

Profit per pen = re.1

profit for 45 pens = rs.45

if profit is always in positive then loss for the month is -5

so 45+x = -5

x = -50

so the loss is -50

pencils sold = (50/0.40)

= 125
