Question

By selling 144 hens Mala, lost the S.P. of 6 hens. Find her loss%​

Answer 1

Let the selling price of each hen = x

Total selling price = 144x

loss = 6x

TotalCost price = 144x +6x = 150x

Percentage loss = (6x/150x)×100 = (6/150)×100 = 4%

Answer 2

Answer:

loss=CP of144 hens - SP of 144 hens

SP of 6 hens =CP of 144 hens - SP of 144 hens

SP of 150 hens= CP of 144 hens

Let CP of 1 hen be Rs 1

then SP of 144 hens = Rs 150

Loss= SP of 6 hens =150/144×6=Rs 6.25

Loss%= 625/100×1/144×100=4%
