Question

If the C.P. of 15 tables is equal to the S.P. of 20 tables, find the profit or loss per cent.​

Answer 1

Answer:

C.P of 15 tables = S.P of 20 tables

SPCP=1520>5 units loss

∴ Loss%=205×100=25%

Answer 2

$hey \: mate$

Let CP of 1 table be Rs. 1

So CP of 15 tables = Rs. 15

CP of 15 tables = SP of 20 tables = Rs. 15

Now CP of 20 tables = Rs. 20

Since,

CP of 20 tables is greater than SP of 20 tables

There is a net loss

Loss = CP - SP = 20 - 15 = Rs. 5

So

Loss % = 5/20 × 100 = 25%
