In the given problem it is already stated that the cost of each eggs is 15 cent. Out the total eggs bought 6 were broken. The rest of the eggs were sold for 20 cents each and the profit made was $4.80.
Cost of the 6 broken eggs = (6 * 0.15)
= 0.9 cents
Let us assume that the number of eggs bought = x
Then we can write the equation as
0.2x - (0.15x - 0.9) = 4.80
0.2x - 0.15x + 0.9 = 4.80
0.05x = 4.80 - 0.9
0.05x = 3.9
x = 3.9/0.05
= 78
So the number of eggs bought by him is 78
Answer:
612
Step-by-step explanation:
To find this answer, you can invert the equation:
452.88 = 0.74x
x = 452.88 / 0.74
x = 612
