No.of eggs woman bought = 50*12 = 600
cost of one dozen egg = 6.40
cost of 50 dozen eggs = 50*6.40 = 320
no. of broken eggs = 20
remaining eggs = 600-20=580
her selling price per one egg = 55 paise = rs.0.55
total cost for 580 eggs = 580*0.55=319
here the money she spend is more than she gained.
her loss = 320-319= 1
loss = rs 1
loss percentage =1.0031347962
