Question

If the CP of an article is Rs. 430 and it was sold for Rs. 340, find the profit % or loss %​

Answer 1

Answer:

cost price=430

selling price=340

loss=110

$loss percent = profit \: \times 100 \div costprice$

= 110×100/430

=625/43

Answer 2

Answer:

$\begin{gathered} \: \tt{CP = ₹430}\\ \tt{SP = ₹ 340} \\ \tt{Firstly, \: we \: find \: loss \: because \: CP \: is \: greater \: than \: SP}\\ \tt{Loss = CP - SP }\\ \tt{Loss = 430 - 340 }\\ \tt{Loss = ₹ 90 }\\ \small\tt{Now, \:we \:find \:the\: loss \:\%}\\ \tt{Loss \: \% = \frac{Loss}{CP} \times 100}\\ \tt{Loss \: \% = \frac{90}{430} \times 100}\\ \tt{Loss \: \%= \frac{900}{430}\% \: \: \: or \: \: \: 2\frac{4}{43}} \%\end{gathered}$
