Loss percent = 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN

Cost Price = ₹400

Selling Price = ₹360

___________________________

TO FIND

Loss Percent

___________________________

We know that,

Loss = Cost Price - Selling Price

Loss = 400 - 360

Loss = 40

Loss = ₹40

___________________________

We know that,

Loss Percent = Loss / Cost Price × 100

Loss percent = 40 / 400 × 100

Loss Percent = 0.1 × 100

Loss Percent = 10

Loss percent = 10%

___________________________

IMPORTANT

If the profit percent is given and we have to find the selling price

Then

Selling Price = ( 100 + Profit% ) × Cost Price / 100

If the loss percent is given and we have to find the selling price

Then

Selling Price = ( 100 - Loss% ) × Cost Price / 100

When selling price and loss percent is give and we have to find the cost price

Then

Cost Price = ( Selling Price × 100 ) / ( 100 - Loss Percent )

When selling price and profit percent is give and we have to find the cost price

Then

Cost Price = ( Selling Price × 100 ) / ( 100 + Profit Percent )
