Question

A farmer sells his product at a loss of 8% if his selling price was ₹27600, what was his actual loss ? Find out his cost price also.​

Answer 1

Answer:

let, c.p=Rs.x

loss=8%

loss money= x(8/100) =Rs.2x/25

s.p=Rs.27600

s.p=c.p-loss

27600=x-2x/25

27600=23x/25

27600×25/23=x

30000=x

so, c.p=Rs.30000

actual loss=c.p-s.p

actual loss=30000-27600

actual loss=Rs.2400

Answer 2

ANSWER:

SP OF PRODUCT = 27,600

loss = 8%

C. P = S. P/1-LOSS/100

CP= 27600/1-8/100

CP= 30,000 rs

ACTUAL LOSS = C. P - S. P

LOSS = 30,000 - 27,600

= 2,400 rs
