you should write your question more clearer...
answer the question using FIFO ledger format...
based on my understanding
the answer will be
a) 100+275+1375+300 = 2050
b) 300

Well, she did, but it's over here:
https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/accounting/fifo-method-pricing-360626.html

The two threads were originally back to back so I found it, but now they've gotten separated. So what she really should have done is put the more clear one tacked onto this same thread.

However, I found the thing impossible to solve. You're welcome to give it a go and see if you find something I can't. :-)
