The lost percentage is 12% respectively.

Explanation :-

Given :

Cost price = Rs. 1250

To find :

The loss percentage

Solution :

We know that,

l\% = \frac{l}{cp} \times 100l%=

cp

l

×100

\: \: \: \: \: \: \: = ( \dfrac{150}{1250} \times 100)\%=(

1250

150

×100)%

\: \: \: \: \: \: \: = ( \dfrac{15000}{1250} )\%=(

1250

15000

)%

\: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 12\%=12%

Hence, the loss percentage is 12%.

Additional information :-

When SP > CP, there is a profit and profit = (SP - CP)

When CP > SP, there is loss and loss = (CP - SP)

Loss percentage = (L/CP × 100)%

Profit percentage = (P/CP × 100)%
