A shopkeeper buys 12 dozen eggs. 15 eggs break during transport, and he sells the rest at ₹6 per egg. How much money does he collect?
Answer: The shopkeeper collects ₹774.
Step-by-step solution
Step 1: Calculate total number of eggs bought
First, we need to find the total number of eggs the shopkeeper bought. Since one dozen contains 12 eggs, we multiply the number of dozens by 12.
Step 2: Calculate number of eggs remaining
Next, we subtract the number of broken eggs from the total number of eggs bought to find out how many eggs are left to sell.
Step 3: Calculate total money collected
Finally, we multiply the number of remaining eggs by the selling price per egg to find the total money collected by the shopkeeper.
