Question:

By selling 35 greeting cards, a shopkeeper loses an amount equal to the selling price of five greeting cards. Find his loss per cent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the S.P. for one greeting card be x.

.°. Loss: 5x

$cp = sp + loss = 35x + 5x = 40x$

$loss\% = \frac{loss}{cp} \times 100 = \frac{5x}{40x} \times 100 = \frac{25}{2} = 12 \frac{1}{2} \%$
