Answer 1

Answer:

LOSS PERCENTAGE= 32.57

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN

COST OF 1 EGG = ₹ 5

SP OF 1 EGG = ₹ 4

TRANSPORTATION COST = ₹300

CP OF TOTAL EGGS = 500× 5 = 2500

TOTAL CP = 2500 + 300 = 2800

BROKEN EGGS = 28

SAFE EGGS = 500 - 28 = 472

TOTAL SP OF EGGS = 472 × 4

= 1888

CP > SP

= LOSS

LOSS = CP - SP

= 2800 -1888

= 912

$LOSS \: \% \: = \frac{912}{2800} \times 100$

= 32.57
