Question

if cp= 4300 and sp= 3200, then what is loss percentage


please tell​

Answer 1

Answer:

The loss is 25.58 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

       Cost price=4300

     Selling price=3200

In this case,

                 Cost price is more than selling price , so there is loss.

                    $Loss= C.P.-S.P\\ \\ Loss=4300-3200\\ \\ Loss=1100$

Percentage of loss=

                             $(\frac{Loss}{C.P.}) \cdot 100=(\frac{1100}{4300} ) \cdot 100\\ \\ =25.58$

Answer 2

Loss (%) is 25.58.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

• Cost Price = 4,300
• Selling Price = 3,200

To find :

• Loss (%)

Solution :

★ Loss (%) :

${\boxed{\sf\:{Loss\% = \frac{CP - SP}{CP} \times 100}}}$

• Cost Price = 4,300
• Selling Price = 3,200

• Loss =

$\boxed{\sf{Cost\: Price-Selling\: Price}}$

= 4,300 - 3,200

= 1,100

The loss occurred is 1,100

★ Loss (%) =

${\boxed{\sf\:{Loss\% = \frac{CP - SP}{CP} \times 100}}}$

$\sf\:{Loss\% = \frac{4300 - 3200}{4300} \times 100}$

$\sf\:{Loss\% = \frac{1100}{4300} \times 100}$

$\sf\:{Loss\% = 25.58}$

Therefore, Loss (%) is 25.58.
