Question

Loss is denoted by a negative integer and profit is denoted by a positive integer. A
fertilizer company earns a profit of 25 per sack of Urea sold and loss of 15 per sack of
DAP sold. The company sells 2,000 sacks of Urea and 3,000 sacks of DAP in a month.
What is its profit or loss?​

Answer 1

Answer:

+5000 profit is earned by fertilizer company in a month.

Step-by-step explanation:

3000 sacks of DAP loss = 15 x 3000 = -45000

2000 sacks of Urea profit = 25 x 2000 = +50000

To find overall profit we subtract losses from the profit to get income

So,

50000

-45000

 5000

+5000 profit is earned by fertilizer company in a month.
