Question

Step by step solve this question. Find the profit percent of C.P = Rs 2500 and S.P= Rs 2350​

Answer 1

Answer:

Loss Percent ( L % ) = 6 %

Step-by-step explanation:

C.P = Rs 2500

S.P = Rs 2350

Cost Price > Selling Price

Loss = C.P - S.P

L = 2500 - 2350

Loss = 150

Loss Percent = L / C.P × 100

L % = 150 / 2500 × 100

Hence ;

L % = 6

Answer 2

Given: C.P = Rs$2500$ and S.P= Rs $2350$.

We have to find the loss percent.

As we know that the formula is used to calculate the profit percent is:

$Loss\% =\frac{\text { Loss }}{\text { CostPrice }} \times 100$

We are solving in the following way:

We have,

C.P = Rs$2500$ and S.P= Rs $2350$.

$\begin{array}{l}\text { Loss = CP-SP } \\\Rightarrow 2500-2350 \\\Rightarrow 150\end{array}$

Loss $=150 \mathrm{Rs}.$

Now,

$\begin{array}{l}\text { Loss\% }=\frac{\text { Loss }}{\text { CostPrice }} \times 100 \\\\\text { Loss } \%=\frac{150}{2500} \times 100 \\\\\text { Loss } \%=6\end{array}$

Hence, we get the Loss $\%=6.$

NOTE:

In this problem cost price is more than the selling price. So we are assuming that we have to find the loss percentage.
