Answer:

The formula to compute the loss percentage is:

$loss\%=\frac{loss}{CP}\times100$

Given:

CP = Rs. 1500

loss = Rs. 135

Compute the loss percent as follows:

$loss\%=\frac{loss}{CP}\times100=\frac{135}{1500}\times100= 9\%$

Thus, the loss percent is 9%.

Answer 2

Answer:

cost price =1500

loss=135

sp=1500+135=1535

loss percent =135/1500*100=9percent
