Question

a women bought certain number of eggs out of which 4%bad. after selling 75 %of remaining she has 96 eggs. find thr number of eggs she bought.

Answer is 400

Answer 1

Find the percentage of eggs left after 4% are bad:

Percentage of eggs left = 100 - 4 = 96%

Find the percentage of eggs sold:

Percentage of eggs sold = 75% of the remaining

Percentage of eggs sold = 0.75 x 96% = 72%

Find the percentage of eggs remain:

Percentage of eggs remain = 96 - 72 = 24%

Find the total number of eggs bought:

Percentage remain = 24%

Eggs remain = 96

24% = 96 eggs

1% = 96 ÷ 24 = 4 eggs

200% = 4 x 100 = 400 eggs

Answer: She bought 400 eggs
