Question

A shopkeeper buys 100 eggs for rupees 250 out of these 10 eggs were found to be broken. He sold the remaining eggs at the rate of rupees 40 per dozen. find his gain or loss percent.​

Answer 1

Solution

cost of 100 eggs=250Rs

therefore cost of 1 egg=(250/100)Rs=2.5 Rs

now 10 eggs are broken..

so the number of good eggs=90 pcs

now he sold eggs at the rate of 40 Rs/dozen

therefore....

selling price of 12 pcs eggs=40 Rs

so, selling price of 90 eggs

=[(40/12)×90]Rs

=300 Rs

therefore total profit=(300-250)Rs=50Rs

therefore profit percentage

$= \frac{50}{250} \times 100\% \\ = 20\%$
