Given:

Farm M: cost of one sheep = $20

Farm Q: cost of set of 5 sheep = $75

Since 10 sheeps are needed, the cost of 10 sheeps from each farm will be:


\text{Farm M = }(10)/(1)\ast20=\text{ \$200}
\text{Farm Q: }(10)/(5)\ast75\text{ = 2 }\ast\text{ 75 = \$150}

If she goes with farm Q, the amount of money she will save is:

Cost of 10 sheep from M - Cost of 10 sheep from farm Q =

$200 - $150 = $50

Therefore, she will save $50 if she goes with farm Q.

ANSWER:

$50
