$\huge{\dashrightarrow{\texttt{\red A\orange N\purple S\blue W\green E\red R}}}$

$\rightarrow$ Ali bought a bicycle for Rs.10000

and sold it for Rs.8000

Formula Used :

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

Solution :

$\rightarrow$ 10000 - 8000 = 2000

$\rightarrow$ 2000 × 100/10000

$\rightarrow$ 200000/10000

$\rightarrow$ 20
