Question

Find Profit Loss Percentage if:
Cost Price: 655
Sale Price: 400
​

Answer 1

since C.P(cost price) is greater than S.P(sale price) then its a loss

loss = C.P - S.P

loss = 655 - 400

loss = 255

loss percentage = loss. × 100

C.P.

= 255. × 100

655

= 38.94%

i hope it will help you!

Answer 2

cp=655

sp=400

so we get loss=655-400

• 255

loss percentage =loss/cp *100

255/655*100=38.931 percent
