Answer 2

The loss percent is 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost Price = quantity × cost of each bat

                    = 80 × 50

                     = Rs. 4000

No. of bats sold = 10% of 80(total bats)

                           = 10/100 × 80

                           = 8 bats

S.P. of 8 bats = 8 × Rs. 40

                        = Rs. 320              

S.P. of 72 bats= 72(remaining bats) × Rs.50

                        = Rs. 3600

Total S.P.  =  Rs. 3600 + Rs.320=3920/-

Loss = S.P. - C.P.

         = Rs. 4000 - Rs. 3920

         = Rs. 80

Loss Percent = Loss/c.p. × 100

                    = 80/4000 × 100

                      = 2%
