Question

Find the loss per cent when
S.P=₹1272
Loss=₹328

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

S.P =₹1272

Loss =₹328

C.P = loss + S.

= 1272 + 328 = 1600

loss%= ( loss/C.P×100) %

= (328/1600×100) %

= 20.5%

Answer 2

$\huge {\red {\mathfrak{Question :-}}}$

• Find the loss per cent when : SP = Rs 1272 and Loss = Rs 328

$\huge {\pink{\mathfrak{Solution :-}}}$

$\underline{\bold {Given:}}$

• SP=Rs 1272
• Loss = Rs 328

$\underline{\bold {To\:Find:}}$

• The loss per cent.

To Find loss per cent first Find CP .

$\boxed {\sf{CP=SP+Loss.}}$

$\longrightarrow {\tt{CP=SP+Loss}}\\ \\ \longrightarrow {\tt{CP = Rs \: (1272 + 328)}} \\ \\ \longrightarrow {\tt{CP = 1600}}$

$\rule {127}{1}$

$\boxed {\sf{loss\% = (\frac{Loss}{CP} \times 100)\%}}$

$\longrightarrow {\tt{Loss\% = (\frac{Loss}{CP} \times 100)\%}} \\ \\\longrightarrow {\tt{Loss\% = (\frac{328}{1600} \times 100 )\%}} \\ \\ \longrightarrow {\tt{Loss\% = 20.5\%}}$

$\green {\therefore{\bf {The\:loss\:per\:cent \:is\:20.5\%.}}}$
