उत्तर

Item Price of each Number of items Cost
Borewell for freshwater Rs 3000 1 1 × 3000 = 3000 rupees
Bamboo rack for fish drying Rs 2000 20 20 × 2000 = 40000 rupees
Cement tank Rs 1000 4 4 × 1000 = 4000 rupees
Tray and knife Rs 300 20 20 × 300 = 6000 rupees
Bucket Rs 75 20 20 × 75 = 1500 rupees

Total cost to set up the factory

= 3000 + 40000 + 4000 + 6000 + 1500

= 54500 rupees

Fresh fish in 1 month = 6000 kg

Dry fish in 1 month

= `1/3 xx 6000`

= 2000 kg
