ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
X : 2eggs for Rs.1 => cost of each egg = Rs. 1/2
X : 3eggs for Rs.2 => cost of each egg = Rs. 2/3
total Cost of eggs = X[1/2] + X[2/3] = X [1/2 + 2/3 ] = X [7/6] = X[35/30]
ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):
Selling :
2X : 5eggs for Rs.3 => cost of each egg = Rs. 3/5
total Sales revenue = 2X[3/5] = X[6/5] = X[36/30]
