Answer:
the selling price of 1 egg is Rs. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of eggs bought by David = 2 dozen
= 2*12
= 24 eggs
Eggs broken = 6
Eggs remained = 24 - 6
= 18 eggs
Loss incurred on selling the eggs = Rs. 20
Loss = C.P. - S.P.
20 = 56 - S.P.
S.P. = 56 - 20
S.P. = Rs. 36
So, selling price of 18 eggs is Rs. 36
Selling Price of 1 egg = 36/18
= Rs. 2
So, the selling price of 1 egg is Rs. 2
