Question

If the 10kg rice is sold for the cost price of 8kg rice , find the loss percent.​

Answer 1

Answer:

25% is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

let the CP of 8 kg rice be x

so CP of 10 kg rice = 10x/8

SP of 10 kg rice according to question= x(CP of 8kg rice)

loss percent= (CP-SP)/CP *100

= (10x/8 - x)/x*100

= (2x/8)/x*100

= 2/8*100

= 1/4*100

=25%
