Answer 2

Answer:

The selling price of one egg = Rs.4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A dealer bought a number of egg at rupees 36 , a dozen.

          Also, profit percentage = 50%

To find : the selling price of one egg.

Solution:  1 dozen egg = 12 eggs.

dealer bought a number of eggs at Rs.36, a dozen.

that is, cost price of a dozen of eggs =Rs. 36.

Here, profit percentage =50%

So, profit = 50% of cost price

               = 50% × 36

               = 50  × 36

                  100

               = 18.

profit on 12 eggs = Rs. 18.

Now, selling price = cost price + profit

                              = 36 + 18 =Rs.54.

Total selling price = Rs. 54.

Selling price of 12 eggs = Rs.54

∴, Selling Price per egg = 54 ÷12  = Rs.4.5
