Answer 2

Given information,

CP= Rs. 78000

SP = Rs. 2000

To find-

The value of loss percentage.

Solution -

As we know that,

Loss = $cp - sp$

Where,

CP = cost price

SP = selling price

So by putting the given values in the formula

Loss = $78000 - 2000$

Loss $= 76000$

Loss is Rs. 76000

we know that,

Loss percentage = $\frac{loss}{cp} \times 100$

Loss percentage =$\frac{76000}{78000} \times 100$

By dividing 78000 and 100 by 100 we get

Loss percentage = $\frac{76000}{780}$

By dividing the 76000 and 780 by 10 we get

Loss percentage = $\frac{7600}{78}$

By dividing 7600 by 78 we get

Loss percentage = $97.43$

Hence,

Loss percentage is 97.43% .
