In a certain egg-processing plant, every egg must be inspected, and is either accepted for processing or rejected. For every 96 eggs accepted for processing, 4 eggs are rejected. If, on a particular day, 12 additional eggs were accepted, but the overall number of eggs inspected remained the same, the ratio of those accepted to those rejected would be 99 to 1. How many E eggs does the plant process per day?
Pick one
A) 100  B) 300  C) 400  D) 3,000  E) 4,000

Rationale: "straight pluggin in for me . as usual , i started with c and got the answer . lets ' back calculate and see what we get let us consider eggs processed each day to be 400 so initial ratio of eggs processed and rejected is 96 : 4 or 24 : 1 so out of 400 eggs , there will be 384 eggs processed and 16 rejected . now if the no . of eggs inspected remain and 12 more eggs get accepted that means there e = 384 + 12 = 396 eggs accepted and 4 rejected . . . and the ratio will be 99 : 1 bingo . . . this is what the questions says . . . . its always a good idea to start with c ."
Answer: C
