Answer 2

Answer:

The Loss % is 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Cost Price = Rs. 500

Selling Price = Rs. 400

To find :

Loss %

Solution :

Here -

• SP = 400
• CP = 500
• Loss % = ??

Cost Price > Selling Price

$\therefore$ It is a loss !

★$\green{\boxed{\green{\boxed{\red{\sf{Loss\% = \frac{CP - SP}{CP} \times 100}}}}}}$

$\sf{\implies} \: Loss\% = \frac{500 - 400}{5\cancel{00}} \times 1\cancel{00} \\ \sf{\implies} \:Loss\% = \frac{100}{5} \times 1 \\ \sf{\implies} \:Loss\% = 20 \times 1 \\ \sf{\implies} \:Loss\% = 20\%$

Loss % = 20%

$\therefore$ The Loss % is 20%
