Question

a seller bought a dozen egg for ₹18 at 50%profit . find selling price of one egg

Answer 1

Seller bought = 12 eggs
Cost of 12 eggs with 50% profit = Rs 18
Selling price of 12 eggs = 18×2
= 36
Selling price of one egg = 36÷12
= 3

Answer 2

CP of dozen egg = 18
Profit=50%
If CP=100 ,profit=50 then SP =150
SP=SP/CP%×CP
=150/100×18
=27
Sp of one egg =27/12=2 3/12
