Question

A woman bought 15 dozen eggs at Rs 3.20 a dozen. Out of these 15 eggs were found to be broken. She sold the remaining eggs at 40 paise per egg. Find her gain or loss percent.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given cost of one dozen eggs = Rs. 6.40

Cost of 50 dozen eggs = 50 x 6.40 = Rs. 320

Total number of eggs = 50 x 12 = 600

Number of eggs left after removing the broken ones = 600 – 20 = 580

SP of 1 egg = 55 paise

So, SP of 580 eggs = 580 x 55 = 31900 paise

= Rs. 31900/100

= Rs. 319

Loss = CP – SP

= Rs. (320 – 319)= Rs. 1

Loss % = (Loss/CP) x 100

= (1/320) x 100

Loss = 0.31%
