Question :

Ajit Kaur bought 50 kg sugar for rs.1750. Due to the decrease in the rate of sugar he sold the suger at Rs.32 per kg. What is his loss ??

Answer:

Rs.3 per kg is the loss or

Total loss is Rs.150

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ;

Quantity of Sugar : 50 kg

Cost of the sugar brought : Rs.1750

Selling price : Rs.32 per kg

To find :

The loss of Ajit after selling the sugar

Solution :

Cost of 1 kg sugar =

$\tt{\Rightarrow{1750 \div 50}}$

$\tt{\Rightarrow{35}}$

$\tt{\Rightarrow{Rs.35}}$

$\tt{\Rightarrow{Cost\:Price\:of\:1\:kg\:sugar\:= Rs.35}}$

CP = Rs.35

SP = Rs.32

CP > SP

∴ It is a loss

Loss = CP - SP

$\tt{\Rightarrow{35-32}}$

$\tt{\Rightarrow{3}}$

$\tt{\Rightarrow{Loss = Rs.3}}$

∴ Loss is Rs. 3 per kg

Total loss =

$\tt{\Rightarrow{3\times50}}$

$\tt{\Rightarrow{150}}$

$\tt{\Rightarrow{Loss = Rs.150 }}$

∴ Loss is Rs. 3 per kg and Rs.150 is the total loss.
