Given :-

Selling price of the pen :- ₹50

Discount rupees :- ₹5

\:

To Find :-

Loss percentage of the pen

\:

Formula required :-

{\large \tt \dashrightarrow \orange{\boxed{\tt \gray{\dfrac{Discount}{Cost \: price} \times 100}}}}

\:

How to do :-

Here, we are given with Selling price and tye discount rupees of the pen. We should find the loss percentage of the pen. So, first we should find the cost price of the pen, because it's required for finding the loss percentage. To find the cost price, we should add the selling price and the discount rupees of the pen. Later, we can find the discount percentage of the pen by using the given formula.

Solution :-

Cost price :-

{\tt \leadsto 50 + 5}

{\tt \leadsto Rs \: \: 55}

Now,

Discount percentage :-

{\tt \leadsto \dfrac{5}{55} \times 100}

{\tt \leadsto \dfrac{5}{ \cancel{55}} \times \cancel{100} = \dfrac{5}{11} \times 20}

{\tt \leadsto \dfrac{5 \times 20}{11} = \dfrac{100}{11}}

{\tt \leadsto \cancel \dfrac{100}{11} = \boxed{\tt 9.09 \bf\%}}

\Huge\therefore The discount percentage of the pen is 9.09%.
