Answer 1

➤ Given :-

Cost price :- ₹ 2200

Selling price :- ₹ 2090

➤ To Find :-

Loss percentage of the given sum.............

➤ Formula required :-

${ \tt \large \dashrightarrow \orange { \boxed{ \tt \gray{ \frac{Loss}{Cost \: Price} \times 100 }}}}$

➤ Solution :-

First, we should find the loss of the given sum......

Loss :-

${ \tt \longrightarrow 2200 - 2090}$

${ \tt \longrightarrow \sf rs \: \tt \: 110}$

Now,

Loss percentage :-

${\tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{110}{2200} \times 100 }$

${ \tt \longrightarrow \dfrac{110}{ \cancel{2200}} \times 100 = \boxed{ \tt\dfrac{110}{22} }}$

${\tt \longrightarrow \cancel \dfrac{110}{22} = 5 \small\bf\%}$

$\Huge\therefore$The profit percentage of the article 5 $\bf\%$.

loss%= loss/cost price* 100
