Loss = CP - SP
(SP of 1 banana) = (CP of 8 bananas) - (SP of 8 bananas)
(SP of 1 banana) + (SP of 8 bananas) = (CP of 8 bananas)
(SP of 9 bananas) = (CP of 8 bananas)

let CP of 1 banana be Rs. 1

CP of 9 bananas = Rs. 9
SP of 9 bananas = CP of 8 bananas = Rs. 8

CP is greater than SP
Loss = SP - CP = 9-8 = Rs. 1

Loss % = Loss/CP × 100
=1/8 × 100 = 12.5%
