Given:

A scooter with

  • Cost Prince = Rs. 60000
  • Selling Price = Rs. 56000

What To Find:

We have to find,

  • The loss percent.

Formula Needed:

\bf Loss \: \% = \dfrac{CP - SP}{CP} \times 100

Where,

  • CP = Cost Price
  • SP = Selling Price

Solution:

Using the formula,

\sf \longrightarrow Loss \: \% = \dfrac{CP - SP}{CP} \times 100

Substitute the values,

\sf \longrightarrow Loss \: \% = \dfrac{60000 - 56000}{60000} \times 100

Subtract the values in the numerator,

\sf \longrightarrow Loss \: \% = \dfrac{4000}{60000} \times 100

Cancel the zeros,

\sf \longrightarrow Loss \: \% = \dfrac{40}{6}

Divide 40 by 6,

\sf \longrightarrow Loss \: \% = \dfrac{20}{3} \: \%

Final Answer:

∴ Thus, the loss % is 20/3 %.
