Answer 2

Answer:

20%

Step-by-step explanation:

CP OF 12 CANDLES =12X

CP OF 15 CANDLES =15X

NOW ,

          SP OF 15 CANDLES =CP OF 12 CANDLES

            SP OF 15 CANDLES = 12X

          THEN, ACTUAL LOSS =CP-SP

                                                  =  15X-12X

                                                      3X

ALSO, LOSS PERCENT =ACTUAL LOSS *100/CP

                                       3X*100/15X

                                      300X/15X

                                       20%

SO THE LOSS % IS 20%
