Answer:
a. -₹2,500
b. 75 shirts
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation is shown below:
a. The profit or loss is
= ₹100 × 50 shirts + -₹50 × 150 half pants
= ₹5,000 - ₹7,500
= -₹2,500
b. The number of shirts for earning a profit of ₹5,000 per month is
Let us assume the money needed is x
So, the equation would be
- ₹2,500 + x = ₹5,000
x = ₹5,000 + ₹2,500
= ₹7,500
Now the number of shirts required is
= ₹7,500 ÷ 100 shirts
= 75 shirts
