25% Gain

Step-by-step EXPLANATION:

Actual QUESTION : A  shopkeeper BOUGHT a 10 dozen eggs for Rs 480 and sold them at 10 for Rs 50. Find his gain or loss percentage

For Information:

1 dozen = 12

Hence 10 dozen = 10 × 12 = 120

Given :

Cost of 10 dozen eggs = 480

⇒Cost of 120 eggs = 480

{\boxed{Cost of 1 egg = 480 / 120}}

                    = ₹4

Now,

SP of 10 eggs = Rs.50              

{\boxed{ SP of 1egg = 50/100 }

                  = ₹5

{\boxed{SP > CP .Hence. the. shopkeeper. had.profit }

P= SP -CP

  =  ₹5 -  ₹4

  =  ₹1

TO FIND :

P% of the shokeeper.

P% =[ \frac{P}{CP } × 100]%

     =[ \frac{1}{4} × 100]%

     = 25% Gain
