Solution :
Cost Price of 1 Dozen eggs = Rs 8.40 ( 1 Dozen = 12 units)
So, The Cost Price of 1 egg = Rs (8.40/12) = Rs 0.7
So, The Cost Price of 100 eggs = Rs (0.7 × 100) = Rs 70
Profit will be 15 %
S.P = C.P + Profit% of C.P
= 70 + 15% of 70
= 70 + 0.15 × 70
= 70 + 10.50
= 80.50
Selling price of 100 eggs makes a profit of 15% which is Rs.80.50.
