Question

Find the loss precent if CP is rupees 15,000, overhead expenses are rupees 25000 and SP is rupees 14,000. ​

Answer 1

A N S W E R :

CP is greater than SP (Loss)

Loss CP - SP

= 15000 14000

= 1000

Loss%= Loss / CP x 100

= 1000/15000 × 100

= 1000/150 ÷2/÷2

= 500/75 ÷5/÷5

= 100/15 = 5/÷5

= 20/3

= 6.666667 %
