Question

A shopkeeper bought 5 dozen eggs for 100 rupees and sold it 12 rupees per dozen is it a profit or loss

Answer 1

Answer:

profit

Step-by-step explanation:

5 dozen means 60 so

60 eggs for 100$

so 12*60=720

so

720-100=620 profit

Answer 2

Answer: C.P of one dozen eggs =100/5=20 rupees

S.P of one dozen eggs=12 rupees

C.P is greater than S.P therefor there is a loss

loss = C.P-S.P

=20-12=8 rupees

therefor the shopkeeper will have a loss of 8 rupees per dozen

The total loss he will have = 5*8=40 rupees
