Answer 1

Answer:

3 dozen eggs =rs. 72

Therefore, 1 dozen eggs =72÷3 =24

1 dozen contains 12eggs

7 eggs were found rotten

5 eggs were rotten =12eggs were wasted

No. Of eggs left =24eggs

Cost price of 36 eggs = 72

Therefore cost Of one egg = 2

She sells remaining 24 eggs 3 rupee each = 24* 3 rupees =72 rupees

Answer 2

Answer:

Neither profit nor loss.

shikha bought 36 eggs for 72 rs

so CP of 1 egg = 72÷36 = rs2

7 eggs brokken + 5 eggs rotten

total eggs sold = 36 - (7+5) =24

SP of 1 egg = rs3

SP of 24 eggs = 3×24 = 72.

hece total CP = total SP

SO NO PROFIT NO LOSS
