Question

A man bought eggs at Rs 33 a dozen and sold them at the rate of of 2 eggs for Rs 6.10. Find his gain or loss percent.

Answer 1

Answer:

10.909%

Step-by-step explanation:

sp at a dozen =6.10 *6=36.6

cp at a dozen=33

loss=3.6

loss percent=10.909

Answer 2

Answer:

cp of one egg = 33/12

sp of one egg = 6.10/2 = 3.05

profit = 3.05 - 33/12 = 36.6 - 33 / 12 = 3.6 / 12 = 0.3

profit % = 0.3 * 100 / 33/12

= 30 * 12/ 33 = 360/33 = 10.91 %
