Answer 2

Given cost price of a table = 1260.

Given Selling price of a table = 1197.

Here, Cost price > Selling price.So, Loss has occured.

Then,

Loss = Cost price - Selling price

       = 1260 - 1197

      = 63.

We know that Loss% = (Loss/CP) * 100

                                  = (63/1260) * 100

                                  = 5.

Therefore, the Loss% = 5%.

Hope this helps
