Question

Find the gain or loss % in the following:- C.P=Rs 5200;S.P=Rs 5070

Answer 1

hey user
since SP is lesser than CP
Therefore it is a case of loss

loss=cp-sp
loss =5200-5070
loss=130
$loss \: percentage = \frac{loss}{cp \: } \times 100 \\ (\frac{130}{5200} \times 100)\% \\ \frac{5}{2} \% \\ 2.5\% \\ hope \: it \: helps \: you$

Answer 2

$\textbf{\large{Answer -}}$

Given,

C.P = 5200

S.P = 5070

Here, the S.P is less than C.P so it will be a case of loss.

Now, loss = C.P - S.P

》loss = $5200\:-\:5070$

》loss = 130

Now, we have to find loss percentage.

So,

$\boxed{Loss\:percentage=\frac{Loss}{C.P}\times 100}$

》Loss percentage = $\frac{130}{5200}\times 100$

》Loss percentage = $2.5\:\%$

$\textbf{So\:there\:will\:be\:loss\:of\:2.5\:\%}$
