Question

Ayush bought a bicycle for 6250 and had to sell it for 5875. Find his loss and loss per cent.​

Answer 1

Answer:

375 loss ok he loses 375 percent

Answer 2

Answer:

Cost price = ₹6250

Selling price= ₹5875

Since C.P. > S.P. ; so there is a loss.

Loss = C.P - S.P

= ₹(6250-5875)

= ₹375

Loss% = $\frac{loss}{cp}$×100

= $\frac{375}{6250}$ ×100

⇝ Loss% = 6%
