Question

5. Sanjay bought eggs at 36 per dozen and sold
them at 40 for ten. Find the profit or loss
per cent.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

3 per egg

sold at 4 per egg

profit = 40-36 =4

prof per = p/cp * 100

4/36 *100 = 11 percent profit

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: C.P. - Rs.36 per dozen

S.P. - Rs.40 per 10 eggs

C.P. FOR 12 EGGS= Rs. 36

C.P. FOR 1 EGG= Rs.36/12

=Rs.3

S.P. FOR 10 EGGS =Rs.40

S.P. FOR 1 EGG=Rs.40/10

=Rs.4

PROFIT= S.P. - C.P

= Rs.4 - Rs.3

=Rs.1

PROFIT%=PROFIT/C.P. × 100

= Rs.1/Rs.3 × 100

= 33.3%
