Answer:
(a)Loss = ₹5
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
A/Q
Shopkeeper sells 7m of red fabric at loss of ₹5 each meter
therefore, Total loss =7*5= ₹35
He sells 5m white fabric at profit of ₹6 each meter
Therefore, Total profit =5*6=₹30
Since, Total profit is less then Total loss
Loss = total loss -total profit
= 35-30.
= ₹5
(b)
Shopkeeper sells 30m of white fabric at profit of ₹6 each meter.
profit = 30*6
= 180
Total profit of that day = ₹60
Loss = Profit -total profit
= 180-60
= ₹120
Loss by selling 1m of red fabric =₹5
Loss by selling Xm of red fabric =₹120
Length of red fabric sold= 120/5
= 24m
