Answer 2

Answer:

Loss percentage is 16.66% .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

SP = ₹ 25000

CP = ₹ 30000

Find gain or loss percentage.

As, SP is less than CP loss occurred

Loss = cp - sp

Where,

SP= Selling price

CP = Cost price

By putting given values

$Loss= 30000 - 25000$

$Loss = 5000$

So,

Loss is ₹ 5000.

We know that,

Loss percentage = $\frac{loss}{cp} \times 100$

By putting given values

Loss percentage = $\frac{5000}{30000} \times 100$

By dividing 5000 and 30000 by 1000 we get

Loss percentage = $\frac{5}{30} \times 100$

Loss percentage = $\frac{5\times 100}{30}$

Loss percentage = $\frac{500}{30}$

Loss percentage $= 16.66$

Hence,

Loss percentage is 16.66% .
