Answer:

25% Gain

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual Question : A  shopkeeper bought a 10 dozen eggs for Rs 480 and sold them at 10 for Rs 50. Find his gain or loss percentage

For Information:

1 dozen = 12

Hence 10 dozen = 10 × 12 = 120

Given :

Cost of 10 dozen eggs = 480

⇒Cost of 120 eggs = 480

$\boxed{Cost.OF.1.Egg=480/120}$

                  = ₹4

Now,

SP of 10 eggs = Rs.50              

$\boxed{SP .of.1.egg= 50/10}$

                 = ₹5

$\boxed{SP>CP, Hence. The .Shopkeeper.Had. Profit}$

P= SP -CP

=  ₹5 -  ₹4

=  ₹1

TO FIND :

P% of the shokeeper.

P% =[$\frac{P}{CP}$ × 100]%

    =[$\frac{1}{4}$ × 100]%

    = 25% Gain
