Question

Rohan purchased some eggs at the rate of 5 for Rs 12 .He sold them at the rate of 10 for Rs 25. find the profit or loss percent​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 5 eggs  = Rs. 12

Cost of 1 egg = Rs. 12/5 = Rs .2.4

CP of 1 egg = Rs. 2.4

S.P of 10 eggs = Rs. 25

S.P of 1 egg =  Rs.  25/10 = Rs. 2.5

S.P of 5 egg = Rs. 2.5 *5 = Rs 12.5

As S.P > C.P , its a Profit

Profit % = (S.P - C.P)/S.P *100% = (12.5-12)/12 *100% = 0.5/12 *100%  =4.17%
