Question

Hemant bhai a camera for rupees 12000 and since he was need of money he had to sell it for rupees 8400 what is the loss percent

Answer 1

Answer:

Hemant incurred a loss of 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution :

Hemant bought the camera for = Rs. 12,000

Sold it for = Rs. 8400

CP = 12,000

SP = 8400

12,000 > 8400

It's a loss.

★ Loss =

= CP - SP

= 12000 - 8400

= 3600

★ Loss% =

= Loss/CP × 100

= 3600/12000 × 100

= 36/12 × 10

= 3 × 10

= 30 %

Therefore, Hemant incurred a loss of 30%.
