Answer 1

Answer:

41.66% is your answer mate

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of 100 eggs=50 Rs

Cost price of 1 egg= 50/100 Rs

Cost price of 96 eggs=

$50 \div 100 \times 96 = 48$

Selling price of 12 eggs=8.50

Selling price of 1 egg=8.50/12

Selling price of 96 eggs =

$8.50 \div 12 \times 96 = 68.00$

Profit=S.P-C.P

=68-48

=20 Rs

profit%= Profit/C.P*100

$= 20 \div 48 \times 100 = 41.66$

=41.66%

Hope this helps mate.... Please follow me....

$\Large\underline\bold{Question:-}$

Subhash bought 100 eggs for Rs 50, out of these ,4 eggs were found tobebroken.HesoldtheremainingeggsattherateofRs8.50perdozen. Find his gain or loss percent.

$\Large\underline\bold{Solution:-}$

$\sf\ Subhas\:bought\:100\:eggs\:for\:Rs.50.$

$\sf\ Cost\:price\:(c.p)\:of\: eggs\:=Rs. 50$

$\small\underline\bold\purple{Now,\:we\:can\:find\:the\: number\: remaining\:eggs}$

$\sf\ Remaining\:eggs=\: Total \:eggs\: - \:broken\:eggs$

$\sf\large\ =(100-4)eggs$

$\large\underline\bold\green{=96\:eggs}$

$\Large\underline\bold{[1\:dozen\:=\:12\:units]}$

$\small\underline\bold\purple{Now, \:we \:can\:find\:the\:dozen\:of\:eggs}$

$\sf\ We\: know\:that\:1\:dozen\:eggs\:is\: equal\: to\:12\:eggs.$

$\sf\ So \:12\:eggs\:=\:1\:dozen\:eggs$

$\sf\ 96\:eggs\:=\frac{96}{12}=\: 8\:dozen.$

$\small\underline\bold\purple{Now\:we \:can\:find\:SP\:of\:8 \:dozen\:of\:eggs}$

$\sf\ Selling\:price\:(SP)\:of\:1\:dozen\:eggs\:is\:Rs.8.50.$

$\sf\ So\: 1\:dozen=\:Rs.8.50$

$\sf\ \:\: \: 8\:dozen=\:Rd.(8.50×8)=\:68$

$\small\underline\bold\purple{Now \:we\:have}$

$\sf\ \:\:\:\: S.P. =\:Rs68$

$\sf\ \:\:\:\: C.P.=\: RS.50$

$\sf\ \:\:\:\: S.P\: \geqslant\: C.P$

$\sf\ Therefore, \: Profit$

$\sf\ Profit=\:S.P -C.P$

$\sf\ Rs.(68-50)=\: 18$

$\sf\large\ Profit\%= \: \frac{(profit×100)}{C.P\%}$

$\sf\large\:\:\:\:\:\:\: =\: \frac{(18×100)}{50\%}$

$\sf\large\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\: =\: \frac{1800}{50\%}$

$\Large\underline\bold\red{=36\%}$
