a man bought eggs at rs.32 a dozen and sells them at 3 for rs.10. find his gain or loss percent.
Its Easy
CP Of Each Egg = 32/12 = Rs 8/3
SP Of Each Egg = 10/3 = Rs 10/3
As SP> CP So There Is A Profit
Profit% = Profit/CP * 100
Profit = 10/3-8/3 = 2/3
CP = 8/3
Substitute Values
Profit% = 2/3 * 3/8 * 100 = 25%
Now Profit% = Profit/CP * 100
