Step-by-step explanation:
Total eggs= 100
CP of the total eggs = ₹40
No. of eggs broken = 4
= 100 - 4
= 96
1 dozen = 12 eggs
therefore, 96 eggs = 96 ÷ 12
= 8
therefore 96 eggs = 8 dozen
price of 1 dozen eggs is = ₹ 750
therefore price of 8 dozen eggs = 750 × 8
= 6000
therefore he has got profit.
Profit percentage = profit ×100
CP
6000 ×100
40
= 15000 %
.
. . the profit percentage is 15000% (ans)
