find the profit or loss percent if
a) CP = RUPEES 65. 85,SP=RUPEES 55.25​

CP=₹65.85

SP=₹55.25

As You Know Cost Price is actual in which A person Purchase Something.And Selling Price is price on which other sell it.

Loss=CP-SP

=65.85-55.25

Loss=₹10.60

CP=₹65.85

$loss \: \% = \frac{loss}{cp} \times 100 \\ \\ = \frac{10 \: \cancel.60}{65\cancel{.}85} \times 100 \\ \\ = 16.09\%$

Loss%=16.09%
