Question

c.p is equal to 5200 , s.p is equal to 5070 find the gain or loss percent

Answer 1

C.P = 5200

S.P = 5070

S.P < C.P

so ,

loss= 5200 - 5070 = 130

Loss% = 130/5200 x 100 = 10/4% = 2  2/4%

OK

Answer 2

$\textbf{\large{Answer -}}$

Given,

C.P = 5200

S.P = 5070

Here, the S.P is less than C.P so it will be a case of loss.

Now, loss = C.P - S.P

》loss = $5200\:-\:5070$

》loss = 130

Now, we have to find loss percentage.

So,

$\boxed{Loss\:percentage=\frac{Loss}{C.P}\times 100}$

》Loss percentage = $\frac{130}{5200}\times 100$

》Loss percentage = $2.5\:\%$

$\textbf{So\:there\:will\:be\:loss\:of\:2.5\:\%}$
