Answer:
A profit of rupees 64
Step-by-step explanation:
200eggs - 8eggs broken = 192eggs
192/12=16 dozens
24*16=384 rupees
384-320=64 rupees profit
profit%= 64/320 * 100=20% profit
Answer:
The total profit obtained by the shopkeeper is 64 rupees.
The percentage of profit is 20%
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of eggs sold by the shopkeeper:
200eggs - 8eggs broken = 192eggs
The number of dozens of eggs :
192/12= 16 dozens
The price for one dozen eggs = 24 rupees.
The price of 24 dozens of eggs= 24×16=384 rupees
Profit obtained = Selling Price - Cost Price
The selling price= 384 rupees
The cost price = 320 rupees
The profit= 384-320= 64 rupees profit.
Percentage profit = Total profit/Cost × 100
Percentage profit = 64/320 * 100=20% profit.
The total percentage of profit obtained is 20%
