Let us take the selling price of one banana be ' x '
selling price of 36 bananas = 36x
four bananas = 4x
Cost price = selling price + loss
Cost price = 36x + 4x
= 40x
Loss % = ( Loss ÷ cost price ) × 100
Loss % = ( 40 x ÷ 4 x ) × 100
Loss % = ( 4 x ÷ 40 x ) ÷ 100
Loss % = ( 1 ÷ 10 ) × 100
Loss % = 10 %

Let the S.P. of 1 orange be rs 1
sp of 36 oranges = rs 36
Given:-
loss = sp of 4 mangoes
loss percent= sp+l
= rs 36+4= rs 40
loss percent= 4/40×100 =)100/10
=)10
