Question

its top: he had to sell it for 1197. Find his loss percentage
​

Answer 1

$\rm{Answer}$

Given, CP = Rs. 1260

SP = Rs. 1197.

Since ( SP )<( CP ), Ron makes a loss.

Loss = Rs. ( 1260−1197 )= Rs. 63.

Loss percent = loss/C.P.×100 =63/1260 ×100=5 %

Answer 2

GIVEN :-

• CP of table = Rs. 1260.
• SP of table = Rs. 1197.

TO FIND :-

• The loss percentage.

SOLUTION :-

• Here CP > SP.

So in this case there is loss for ravi.

• ⇢ Loss = CP - SP
• ⇢ Loss = 1260 - 1197
• ⇢ Loss = Rs. 63

Now as we know that,

• ⇒ Loss % = Loss/CP × 100 %
• ⇒ Loss % = 63/1260 × 100 %
• ⇒ Loss % = 63/126 × 10 %
• ⇒ Loss % = 630/126
• ⇒ Loss % = 5 %

•Hence the required loss % is 5.
