500-(500*0.25)= 375 is what she got after taking a 25% loss
Now:
500+(500*0.38)= 690 is how much she would sell the remaining 500 to make 38%.
I think this answers your question. You can email me if I didn't understand the problem.

The remaining 1%2F2 of goods should be sold for highlight_green%28matrix%281%2C2%2C+%22Rs.%22%2C+%2213%2C800%22%29%29 to realize a gain of 38% on the entire number of goods purchased
""Percent of profit?" I don't understand this! You have to figure that one out for yourself!
