Arthur runs an Electronics shop. He recently bought a new air conditioner for 32,000. He sold the AC for
28,000
What is Arthur's loss percent?
%​

Answer 1

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost Price = 32,000

Selling price = 28,000

Loss = 32,000–28,000 = 4,000

Loss % = $\frac{loss}{cp} \times 100$

$\frac{4000}{32000} \times 100 = 12.5\%$

Answer 2

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P.=32000

SP=28000

loss=CP-SP

=4000

$loss\% = \frac{loss}{cp} \times 100$

$= \frac{4000}{32000} \times 100 \\ = 12.5\%$
