Question

A man buys 5 dozen eggs at ruppee36 per dozen. Out of which 5 per cent got broken.
he sold remaining eggs for ruppee 48 per dozen. what was his total gain?​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

5 Dozen = 60

total cost = 36×5= 180

5% broke

= total eggs broke= 5/100×60

= 300 / 100

= 3 eggs broke

remaining eggs are 60-3= 57

= 4.75 dozen

He sold them for rupees 48/ dozen

= total cost for he sold eggs

= 48×4.75

= 228

Total profit

= 228-180= 48.......
