A man buys eggs at 2 for Re 1 and an equal number at 3 for Rs 2 and sells the whole at 5 for Rs 3. His gain or loss percent is :

a. 2 2/7% loss
b. 3 6/7 % gain
c. 3 2/7 % loss
d. 2 6/7 % gain

Read Solution (Total 2)

Total cp of 2 eggs=1/2+2/3=7/6
Cp for 1 egg=7/12
Now Sp of 1 egg=3/5
Profit=3/5-7/12=1/60
gain %=(1/60)/(7/12)*100=20/7
So ans will be 2 6/7
