{ According to question and given }

We know 12 item in an one dozen.

Hence,

• 50 dozen eggs = {50 × 12}eggs
• 50 dozen eggs = 600 eggs

{ According to question and given }

Cost price (C.P) of one dozen eggs at Rs 16

Hence,

C.P of 600 eggs = Rs {600×16}

C.P of 600 eggs = Rs 9600

{ According to question and given }

From 600 eggs, 20 eggs were found to be broken.

So now,

Remaining eggs = {600 - 20} eggs

Remaining eggs = 580 eggs

Selling price of 580 eggs
