Answer 1

1. According to the question,

SP of 10 tables = CP of 8 tables

Let us take the cost of 1 table as ₹1

hence,

CP of 8 tables = ₹8

SP of 10 tables = ₹8 [as CP of 8 = SP of 10]

CP of 10 tables = ₹10 (we have considered 1 table to cost ₹1)

The shopkeeper acquired a loss

Loss = CP - SP

Loss = ₹10 - ₹8

Loss = ₹2

$loss\% = \frac{loss}{cp} \times 100$

$\frac{2}{10} \times 100$

Loss % = 20%
