Answer 2

Answer:

The cost of 4 dozen eggs is Rs 240

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that if cost of 15 eggs is Rs. 75

we have to find the cost of 4 dozen eggs.

As 1 dozen eggs=12 eggs

∴ 4 dozen eggs=12(4)=48 eggs

∴ we have to find the cost of 48 eggs

$\text{Cost of 15 eggs=Rs 75}$

$\text{Cost of 1 egg=Rs }\frac{75}{15}$

$\text{Cost of 48 eggs=Rs }\frac{75}{15}\times 48=Rs 240$

Hence, the cost of 4 dozen eggs is Rs 240
