Let selling price of 12 eggs = x

Then the COST price of 16 eggs = x

The selling price of 1 egg = x/12

Therefore:

The cost price of 1 egg = x/16

We know that:

  • Selling price > cost price

Therefore:

The PROFIT = Selling price - Cost price

= x/12 - x/16

= x/48

Profit % = (Profit/Cost price) x 100%
