QUESTION ----- Jack bought 4 dozen eggs at $10 per dozen. 6 eggs were broken. What percent of his money goes waste?

ANSWER
_____________________________

1 Dozen = 12
4 Dozen = 48 Eggs

Price of 1 dozen = $10

Price of 4 Dozen = $40

48 eggs cost $40

So, 1 Egg cost = 48/40

1 Egg costs = 6/5
1 Egg cost = $ 1.2

6 Eggs were broken
So cost of broken Eggs = $1.2 × 6

Cost of Broken Eggs = $7.2

% of money wasted = Waste / Original × 100

=> 7.2/ 40 × 100

=> 72 / 400 × 100

=> 72 / 4

=> 18 %

________________________________
ANSWER --

PERCENTAGE OF MONEY WASTED = 18%
