Answer 1

Answer:

1.Loss is 3.48℅.

2.Loss is 20℅.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. C.P=230.

S.P=230-8.

=Rs 222.

Let X be the profit or loss℅.

230×X/100=222.

X=22200/230

=96.52173913℅.

i.e 100℅-96.52173913℅.

=3.48℅ loss.

2.C.P=1500.

S.P=1200.

Let X be the profit or loss℅.

1500×X/100=1200.

X=1200×100/1500.

X=80℅.

i.e 100℅-80℅.

=20℅ loss.
