Answer 2

We will learn how to calculate loss and loss percent.

If selling price is less than the cost price (S.P. < C.P.), there is a loss.

Loss = cost price - selling price

or, cost price = loss + selling price

Selling price = cost price - loss

Loss% → loss on $100 is called loss%

Loss percent is always calculated on cost price

So, loss% = loss/cost price × 100

1. A dress was bought for $400 and sold $350. Find the loss and loss percent.

Solution:

Cost price = $400

Selling price = $350

Since, S. P. < C. P., there is loss

Therefore, loss = cost price - selling price

= $450 - $350

= $50

So, loss% = loss/cost price × 100%

= 50/400 × 100%

= 25/2

= 12.5%
