Question

Ajit Kaur bought a 50 kg sack of sugar for ₹ 1750, but as sugar prices fell she had to sell it at ₹ 32 per kg. How much loss did she incur?

Answer 1

She bought 50kg sack for ₹1750,
Per kg cost of the Sugar is 1750/50= ₹35

now she sells it at ₹32 hence ₹3 loss per kg.
hence total loss for 50 kg is 50*₹3= ₹150 loss

Answer 2

50kg of sugar = Rs 1750
she selled it for Rs 32 due to prices fell down
So 32×50=1600
cost price 1750
1750_1600= Rs 150
Therefore he had a loss of Rs 150
