GivEn:

  • A pen was bought for 25.00
  • The pen was sold for 20.00

To find:

  • The loss percentage of the pen?

Solution:

☯ Let loss percentage of the pen be x.

We know that,

Loss price = CP - SP

Here,

  • SP = 20.00
  • CP = 25.00

Therefore,

⇒25.00 - 20.00

5.00

Loss percent = Loss price/cp × 100

⇒ x = 5/25 × 100

⇒ x = 5 × 4

x = 20 %

∴ Hence, Loss percentage of the pen is 20%.

  • Profit = Sp - Cp

  • CP = 100/100 + P% × SP

  • Profit % = Profit/CP × 100
