Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

cost of a dozen eggs = 36

cost of 50 dozen eggs = 50 × 36 = 1800

1 dozen= 12

2 dozen= 25

2 dozen eggs were rotten so now there are 48 dozen eggs to sell so that he made 10% of profit

10% of 1800 = 180

SP of 48dozen eggs = 1800+180 = 1980

SP of a dozen eggs = 1980/48 = 41.25
