Question

Reema bought 20 dozen of eggs. She found 2/5 were broken. Find the number of good eggs left with her.

Answer 1

Answer :

144

Solution :

Given,

No. of eggs Reema bought = 20 dozens = 20 × 12 = 240

[Since, one dozen = 12]

No. of eggs broken = 2/5 of total eggs

Broken eggs = 2/5 × 240 = 96

No. of good eggs left = total eggs - broken eggs

= 240 - 96

= 144

Answer 2

Answer:

Total number of eggs Reema had= 20 dozen

Broken eggs= 2/5 of total

Number of good eggs=[1- 2/5] of 20 dozen

→3/5 of 20 dozen

→ 12dozen
