Answer 1

$\underline{\boxed{\bold{Question}}}$  

↠ Cost price of 20 mangoes is equal to selling price of 25 mangoes, so find Percentage profit or loss

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$\underline{\boxed{\bold{Important\;Information}}}$  

↠ If cost price is more than selling price than loss is incurred while selling the object.

↠ If cost price is less than selling price than loss is incurred while selling the object.

$\boxed{\red{\leadsto \% Loss = (\frac{CP-SP}{CP}) \; \times 100 }}$

$\boxed{\red{\leadsto \% Profit = (\frac{SP-CP}{CP}) \;\times100 }}$

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$\underline{\boxed{\bold{Given}}}$

↠ CP of 20 mangoes = SP of 25 mangoes

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$\underline{\boxed{\bold{Answer}}}$

Let's Start !

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Let's assume certain things :

$\boxed{\red{\leadsto CP \;of\; 20\; mangoes = SP \;of\; 25\; mangoes = Rs.\;100}}$

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$\green{i) \; CP \;of\; 20\; mangoes = Rs.\;100}$

$:\implies CP \;of\; 1\; mangoes = Rs.\;\frac{100}{20}$

$\boxed{\purple{:\implies CP \;of\; 1\; mangoes = Rs.\;5}}$

$\green{ii) \; SP \;of\; 25\; mangoes = Rs.\;100}$

$:\implies SP \;of\; 1\; mangoes = Rs.\;\frac{100}{25}$

$\boxed{\purple{:\implies SP \;of\; 1\; mangoes = Rs.\;4}}$

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

➢ As you can see ,

⇰ SP < CP

∴ There will be loss on selling these mangoes.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Now, let's calculate loss incurred :

$\boxed{\red{\leadsto \% Loss = (\frac{CP-SP}{CP}) \times 100}}$

$:\implies \% Loss = \frac{5-4}{5} \; \times\;100$

$:\implies \% Loss = \frac{1}{5} \; \times\;100$

$\boxed{\therefore Percentage\; Loss = 20\%}$

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

$\boxed{\boxed{\bold{\blue{\therefore Percentage\;Loss = 20 \%}}}}$

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
