Question

Solve in detail plzzzzzzz​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

SP=250

loss=1/6.(CP)

let CP=x

so loss=1.x/6

CP=SP+loss

x=250+x/6

x-x/6=250

6x-x/6=250

5x=6×250

x=6×250/5=6×50=Rs.300

so CP=Rs.300

loss%=loss/cp×100

loss =1×x/6=300/6=Rs.50

loss%=50/300×100

loss%=5000/300

loss%=50/3

losa%=16.666%~~16.67%
