$Francis \: bought =200 \: dozen$

$Cost \: of \: each \: dozen \: notebooks \\ =Rs 420$

$Cost \: of \: 200 dozen \: notebooks \\ = 420*200 = Rs 84000$

$Amount \: spent \: in \: transportation \: \\ = 2400$

$Total \: CP=84000+2400= \: 86400$

$So, \: SP \: of \: one \: dozen \\ =36*12=Rs432$

$SP \: of \: 200 \: dozen \: notebooks \\ = 200*432 =Rs 86400$

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Francis bought = 200 dozen

Cost of each dozen notebooks

=Rs420

Cost of 200 dozen notebooks

=420∗200=Rs84000

Amount spent in transportation

=2400

Total CP = 84000+2400= 86400

So,SP of one dozen

=36∗12=Rs432

SP of 200 dozen notebooks

=200∗432= Rs.86400
