Question

A retailer sells a pack of t shirt for rupees 1200 and surfers a loss of rupees 200 . find his loss percent​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

SP = Rs 1200. Loss = Rs 200.

Loss = CP - SP. So, CP = SP + Loss.

Hence CP = 1200 + 200 = Rs 1400.

Loss % =

$\frac{loss}{cp} \times 100 \\ = \frac{200}{1400} \times 10 \\ = \frac{1}{7} \times 100 = 14.28\%$

Answer 2

Answer:

S.P = Rs 1200

loss = Rs 200

C.P = SP + loss

C.P = 1200 + 200 = 1400

Loss % = $\frac{Loss}{CP}$× 100

→ $\frac{200}{1400}$× 100

→ $\frac{1}{7}$× 100

→ 14.28%
