Answer 2

Answer: Rate of depreciation = 55.55%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  Cost of mobile = 13,500

Cost of mobile after 2 years = 6,000

∴ Amount of decrease= 13500 - 6000 = Rs. 7500

Therefore, rate of depreciation = $\frac{Decrease}{Original Value} * 100$

                                                    = $\frac{7500}{13500} * 100$

                                                    = 55.55%
