$$2frac{1}{2} dozens$$ = $$frac{5}{2} imes12$$=30 eggs
12 eggs price$$
ightarrow$$ Rs.20
then 30 eggs price$$
ightarrow$$ Rs. 50
No. of rotten eggs=6
Remaining eggs=24 Selling price of 12 eggs = Rs.22
Selling price of 24 eggs=$$2 imes22$$=Rs.44 Loss percentage=$$frac{S.P.-C.P.}{C.P} imes100$$
=$$frac{50-44}{50} imes100$$
=$$frac{6}{50} imes100$$=12% loss
