$\huge{\red{45 pens = 45 rs }}$

and lose of on ⤵

$\bf{\blue{1 pencil = 40 paise}}$

or
${\bf{\blue40 paise = 0.4 rs}}$

$\huge\red{\mathbb{Point}}$⤵⤵
[In a particular month she incurs a loss of rs.5. ]

⚪we know she sold $\bold{\red{45 pens = 45 rs }}$ that is profit
but loss = 5 rs in this month.

so Loss = $\bold{\red{45 \:rs + 5 \:rs }}$

we know that loss of 1 pencil = 0.4 rs

so Loss of 1 rs = $\huge{\frac{1}{0.4}} \:pencil$

so Loss for 50 rs =

$\huge{\frac{1}{0.4}}× 50$

= $\huge\red{\mathcal{\fcolorbox{blue}{yellow}{125\: pencils}}}$
