Answer 1

Given data : Manju bought a piece of cloth at Rs 40 per metre. She sold 10 metres for Rs 360.

To find : Calculate her gain % or loss % ?

Solution : Manju bought a piece of cloth at Rs 40 per metre.

So Manju brought 10 meters cloth :

⟹ Cost price 10 meters cloth = 40 * 10

⟹ Cost price 10 meters cloth = Rs 400

According to given : selling price of 10 meters cloth is Rs 360. Here we know that selling price of cloth is less than cost price of cloth. Hence it loss

Now,

⟹ Loss = cost price - selling price

⟹ Loss = 400 - 360

⟹ Loss = Rs 40

Now, by formula of loss percent

⟹ Loss % = (loss/ cost price) * 100

⟹ Loss % = (40/400) * 100

⟹ Loss % = 1/10 * 100

⟹ Loss % = 10 %

Answer : Hence loss of Manju is 10 %. {(B) 10 % loss is answer}
