Question

Meenakshi sells a pen for 54rs and loses 1/10 of her outlay. find (i)the cost price of the pen, and (ii)the loss per cent.​

Answer 1

Let the cp= x

Loss=1/10of cp then loss =1/10x

Sp=54

Sp=cp-loss

54=x-1/10x

Then x=60

We find cp=60

And our loss=1/10×60=6

Loss%=loss/cp×100

Loss%=6/60×100

Loss%=10
