Given:
Selling red fabric at a loss of ₹5 per meter
Selling white fabric at a profit of ₹6 per meter
To Find:
(a) Net Profit or Loss
(b) Meters of red fabric sold
Solution:
(a) First, we'll calculate the cost of both the fabrics,
Cost of selling 7m of red fabric = 7 x (-5) = ₹(-35)
Cost of selling 5m of white fabric = 5 x 6 = ₹30
Now, calculating the net loss and profit = (-35) + 30 = ₹(-5)
(b) Cost of 30m of white fabric = 30 x 6
Given the net profit is ₹60 for the day
Meters of red fabric = (180 - 60) / 5 = 120 / 5 = 24 red fabrics.
