Question

9. Harsha buys a doll for $ 15.00.
She then sells it for $ 13.80.
Calculate her percentage loss

Answer 1

Answer:

Let us assume CP = Rs. 100.

Then Profit = Rs. 80 and selling price = Rs. 180.

The cost increases by 20% → New CP = Rs. 120, SP = Rs. 180.

Profit % = 60/120 * 100 = 50%.

Therefore, Profit decreases by 30%

Answer 2

Answer:

his present loss is $1.20
