There is a gain in the transaction and the profit is 56.25 %.
Explanation:
10 eggs cost 8 rupees
1 egg costs 8/10 rupees
8 eggs sold at 10 rupees
1 egg solds at 10/8 rupees
So there is net profit
Profit = (10/8 - 8/10)/(8/10)
=(5/4-4/5)/(4/5)
=((25-16) /20) /4/5
=(9/20)(5/4)
=45/80
So profit in percentage = (45/80)x 100
= 56.25 %
