Answer 1

The loss percent is 89.93%.

Explanation:

Given : The purchasing price of car = Rs 22,25,400

The money spent on car = rs 10,000

Total cost price = Purchasing price of car + Money spent on car

= Rs 22,25,400 + Rs 10,000

= Rs 22,35,400

The selling price = Rs 2,25,000

Since , selling price < cost price , its a loss.

Loss = cost price- selling price = Rs 22,35,400 - Rs 2,25,000

= 2010400

$Loss \: percent = \dfrac{\text{loss}}{\text{cost price}}\times100 \\ </p><p>cost \: price \: </p><p>loss</p><p> </p><p> ×100$

$</p><p>=\dfrac{2010400}{ 2235400}\times100=89.93\%= </p><p>2235400</p><p>2010400$

×100=89.93%

Hence, the loss percent is 89.93%.
