Question

akbar sold his gun rs 900, whichhe bought for rs 2500 find the loss​

Answer 1

The loss incurred by Akbar is Rs. 1600.

Given: Akbar sold his gun for Rs 900 which he had bought for Rs 2500.

To Find: The loss incurred by Akbar.

Solution:

• We know that the cost at which a commodity is bought is called its cost price (CP)
• The price at which a commodity is sold is called as selling price (SP).
• If CP is more than the SP, it is said to be a loss which is calculated as

                  Loss = CP - SP

• If SP is more than the CP, it is said to be a profit, which is calculated as

                  Profit = SP - CP

Coming to the numerical, we are given;

The CP of the gun = Rs. 2500

The SP of the gun = Rs. 900

The loss is = CP - SP = Rs. ( 2500 - 900 )

                  = Rs. 1600

Hence, the loss incurred by Akbar is Rs. 1600.
