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 %
