Answer 1

Answer: 10 %

Step-by-step explanation:

The Cost Price Of the Refrigerator = 25000

The Selling price Of the Refrigerator = 22500

Here CP>SP So, It's Loss

Loss = CP - SP

         = 25000 - 22500

         = 2500

So, Loss% = Loss/CP x 100

                 = 2500/25000 x 100

                 = 25/25 x 10

                 = 10%

Answer 2

Answer:

• Loss% is 10%.

Given:

• Cost price = 25000 rupees
• Selling price = 22500 rupees

To Find:

• profit or loss % = ?

Solution:

According to the question, a refrigerator is bought for 25000 rupees and sold it for 22500 rupees and we are said to find profit or loss%.

As we know that,

$\: \: \sf \: loss = cp - sp$

where,

• CP is Cost Price.
• SP is Selling price.

Now put on formula

$\: \: \sf \: loss = 25000 - 22500 \\ \\ \: \: \: \sf = 2500 \: rupees$

Hence, loss is 2500 rupees.

Now find the loss %.

As we know,

$\: \: \sf \: loss \: percent = \frac{loss}{cp} \times 100$

Now put on formula

$\: \: \sf \: loss \: percent = \frac{ \cancel2 \cancel5 \cancel00}{ \cancel2 \cancel5 \cancel0 \cancel0 \cancel0} \times 1 \cancel0 \cancel0\\ \\ \: \: \: \sf = 10 \: percent$

Hence loss% is 10%.
