Question

a cycle is marked at rupees 4500 and sold at rupees 4185. padma said that there is a lose of 185. Do u agree?give reason​

Answer 1

The cost price and selling price of the cycle is given

cost price = Rs. 4500

selling price = Rs. 4185

Loss is calculated by subtracting selling price from cost price

loss = cost price - selling price

      = 4500 - 4185

      = 315

Now, according to Padma, the loss is of Rs. 185

But actually, the loss is of Rs. 315

So, Padma is wrong
