      Solution

      ATQ,

      Cost price of 2 dozen donuts = Rs. 120

      Selling price of 18 donuts = 18 Γ— (72/12) = Rs. 108

      Selling price of 6 donuts = 6 Γ— (48/12) = Rs. 24

      Selling price of 24 donuts = 108 + 24 = Rs. 132

      Profit earned on selling 24 donuts = 132 – 120 = Rs. 12

      Profit percentage = (12/120) Γ— 100 = 10%
