Question

A stationer purchased 5 dozen of pens at Rs 25 per piece and sold at Rs 24 per piece.find her loss and loss percent .​

Answer 1

Answer:

₹82

15 %

Step-by-step explanation:

5 dozens = (12 × 5 ) = 60

a/q , shopkeeper purchased the pens = 25 per piece

so, total amount of money = (25 × 60) = ₹1300

Cp= 1300

a/q , shopkeeper sell purchased pens at =₹24

so, there is a loss

SP = (24 × 60) = ₹ 1218

loss = cp - sp

loss = (1300 - 1218) = ₹82

loss percent = cp ÷ loss × 100

loss percent = (1300 ÷ 82 × 100) = 15%

Answer 2

Answer: 60 and 4%

Step-by-step explanation: Solution,

            we know,

                1 dozen = 12

               5*12 = 60

             60*25 = 1500

      therefore, the C.P of 5 dozen of pen is RS 1500.

Now,

To find the S.P of 5 dozen of pens

We know,

             1 dozen = 12

               5*12 = 60

               60*24 = 1440

Therefore, S.P of 5 dozen of pens is RS 1440.

Now,

To find loss amount

Loss = C.P-S.P

Loss = 1500 - 1440

Loss = 60

Therefore, loss is RS 60

Loss percent

To find loss percent

We know

Loss % = Loss/C.P * 100

Loss % = 60/1500*100

Loss % = 4

Therefore loss percent is 4.
