Answer:
=cp of 14 copy is 240
=cp of 1 copy is 240÷14
=17.1428571
=sp of 10 copy is 160
= sp of 1 copy is 160÷10
=16
therefore he loss = 17.1428571 -16
=1.1428571
loss %= 100+loss ÷ 100 × cpt
= 100+1.1428571 ÷100x

Step-by-step explanation:
Cost of 14 copies is Rs 240
Cost of 1 copy =Rs 240/14 = Rs 120/7 =Rs 17.14
CP = Rs 17.14
Cost of 10 copies is Rs 160
Cost of 1 copy = Rs 160/10 = Rs 16
SP = Rs 16
Loss = CP - SP
= Rs (17.14-16)
= Rs 1.14
Therefore, loss percentage = (Loss/CP × 100)%
= (1.14/17.14×100)%
= (114/1714×100)%
= 6.65%
