Question

The selling price of 12 eggs is equal to the cost price of 15 eggs find the gain or loss percentage

Answer 1

Answer:

25% gain

Explanation:

Let the cost price of 1 egg be Rs.1

Cost price of 15 eggs = Rs.15

Selling price of 12 eggs = Rs.15

Cost price of 12 eggs = Rs.12

Selling price > Cost price

Hence, gain = Rs.(15 - 12) = Rs.3

Gain % = 3/12 * 100 = 25%
