Question

A woman bought 50 dozen eggs at rs 16 a dozen.out of these 20 eggs were found to be broken.she sold the remaining eggs at 1.50 rs per egg.find her profit nd loss percent

Answer 1

Cost price of 1 doz (= 12) eggs = Rs16 
Cost price of 1 egg = Rs 16/12 
Cost price of 50 eggs = Rs 50*16/12 = Rs 200/3 --------- (1) 
20 eggs were broken (wasted) 
Remaining No. of eggs = 50 - 20 = 30 
Selling price of 1 egg = Rs 1.50 
Selling price of 30 eggs = Rs 1.50 * 30 = Rs 45.00 ------ (2) 
Cost price being more than the selling price, there cannot be gain 
Loss = Rs(200/3 - 45) = Rs(200 - 135)/3 = Rs 65/3 
Percentage of loss = 100 * (65/3) / (200/3) = 32.5
