Question

find the loss and loss percentage in the following:-

C.P= ₹ 3630
S.P= ₹2920​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P =3630rs

S.P =2920 rs

Since,C.P is greater than S.P therefore loss is incurred.

Loss=C.P-S.P =3630-2920rs=710rs

Loss%=Loss/C.P x 100%

=710/3630x100%=

find this then you will get your answer

Answer 2

Given information,

cost price= ₹ 3630

selling price= ₹ 2920

To find-

The value of loss and loss percentage.

Solution -

As we know that,

Loss = $cp - sp$

Where,

CP = cost price

SP = selling price

So by putting the given values in the formula

Loss = $3630 - 2920$

Loss $= 710$

Loss is ₹ 710

we know that,

Loss percentage = $\frac{loss}{cp} \times 100$

Loss percentage =$\frac{710}{3630} \times 100$

Loss percentage = $\frac{710}{363} \times 10$

Multiply the 710 by 10 we get

Loss percentage = $\frac{7100}{363}$

By dividing 7100 by 363 we get

Loss percentage = $19.55$

Hence,

Loss percentage is 19.55% .
