Let 's' be the number of small packets and 'b' the number of large packets sold on that day.

Therefore, s + b = 5000 ... eqn (1)

Each small packet was sold for Rs.150.
Therefore, 's' small packets would have fetched Rs.150s.

Each large packets was sold for Rs.250.
Therefore, 'b' large packets would have fetched Rs.250b.

Total value of sale = 150s + 250b = Rs. 10.5 Lakhs (Given)

Or 150s + 250b = 10,50,000 ... eqn (2)

Multiplying equation (1) by 150, we get 150s + 150b = 7,50,000 ... eqn (3)

Subtracting eqn (3) from eqn (2), we get 100b = 3,00,000
Or b = 3000

We know that s + b = 5000
So, s = 5000 - b = 5000 - 3000 = 2000.

2000 small packets were sold.

An organelle called Eyespot allows some protists to detect light. It allows the cells to sense light direction and intensity and respond to it by swimming either towards the light (positive phototaxis) or away from the light (negative phototaxis).

Eyespot is a photoreceptive organelle found in the flagellate or (motile) cells of green algae and other unicellular photosynthetic organisms such as euglenids.

Eyespot-mediated light perception helps the cells in finding an environment with optimal light conditions for photosynthesis. Eyespots are the simplest and most common "eyes" found in nature, composed of photoreceptors and areas of bright orange-red pigment granules.
