Question

if cp is 5,000 and loss is 2,000 then find loss%

Answer 1

Answer:

The loss percentage will be 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the cost price and loss is given

cost price = Rs. 5000

loss = Rs. 2000

we have to find the loss %

The formula to calculate loss% is given below

loss % = (loss/cost price) × 100

           = ( 2000/5000) × 100

           = 40%
