CP of eggs= 300×80p= 24000p= Rs. 240 No. of broken eggs= 30 No. of eggs remaining= 300-30= 270 SP of eggs= 270×1= Rs. 270 Clearly, the shpkeeper has gained from this transaction since 270>240, ie, SP>CP. Now, gain= 270-240= Rs. 30 Gain %= (Gain/CP)×100= (30/240)×100= 12.5% Gain %= 12.5%
I hope you understood.
