Question

Find the loss percentage when SP = 600 and CP = 520

Answer 1

Answer:

CP = 520

SP = 600

Profit % = ( SP - CP / CP * 100 )

600 - 520 / 520 * 100

80 / 520 * 100

= 7.69 approx %

Answer 2

Answer:

13.34%

Step-by-step explanation:

If its lost percentage, i think CP is 600 and SP is 520(otherwise it would be gain percentage)

Given,

selling price=520

cost price=600

$\bold{\boxed{lost price=cost price-selling price}}$

LOST PRICE=80

$\bold{\boxed{Lost percentage=\frac{lost price}{cost price}×100}}$

$lost percentage=\frac{80}{600}×100$

$lost percentage=13.34%$
