Question
Iniyan bought 5 dozen eggs. Out of that 5 dozen eggs, 10 eggs are rotten. Express the number of good eggs as percentage
Solution
1 dozen eggs = 12
5 dozen = 5 × 12
Total eggs = 60 eggs
Rotten eggs = 10
Good eggs = 60 – 10 = 50
Fraction of good eggs = `50/60`
Percentage of good eggs = `50/60 xx 100/100`
= `50/60 xx 100%`
= `5/6 xx 100%`
= 83.33%
Percentage of good eggs = 83.33%
