Answer:
Yes, she made a profit of $18
Explanation:
Let us discover that she made a profit or not
∵ She bought 6 dozen eggs
∵ Each dozen has 12 eggs
∴ She bought = 12 × = 72 eggs
∵ The cost of each dozen is $15
∴ The cost of 6 dozen = 6 × 15 = 90
∴ She bought 72 eggs for $90
∵ She kept 25% of the eggs for herself and sold the rest
→ That means she sold 100% - 25% = 75% of the eggs
∴ She sold 75% of the eggs
∵ 75% = 75 ÷ 100 = 0.75
∴ She sold = 0.75 × 72 = 54
∴ She sold 54 eggs
∵ She sold each agg at $2
∴ The selling price = 54 × 2 = 108
∴ She sold the rest of the eggs at $108
∵ The profit appears when the selling price is greater than the cost price
∵ The cost price = $90
∵ The selling price = $108
∵ $108 > $90
∴ Profit = 108 - 90 = $18
∴ She made a profit of $18
