Given:

Total washing machines sold = 85,000

Percentage of Brand M sold = 25%

Percentage of Brand P sold = 20%

Formula Used:

Number of units of a brand = (Percentage of brand sold / 100) × Total number of washing machines sold

Difference = |Number of Brand P washing machines sold - Number of Brand M washing machines sold|

Calculations:

Number of Brand M washing machines sold = (25 / 100) × 85000

⇒ Number of Brand M washing machines sold = 21,250

Number of Brand P washing machines sold = (20 / 100) × 85000

⇒ Number of Brand P washing machines sold = 17,000

Difference = |21,250 - 17000|

⇒ Difference = 4250

∴ The difference between the number of washing machines of Brand M and Brand P sold is 4,250.
