Question

Dozen eggs were bought for rs 18 and sold at 1.80 each.find profit percentage?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

cost price of eggs = 18 for 12 eggs

sell price = 1.8 per egg

total sell price = sell price ° no. of eggs

= 1.8°12 = 21.6

profit = sell price - cost price

= 21.6-18

= 3.6

percentage= profit °100/cost price

= 360/18

= 20%

hence he had 20% profit
