Answer 2

The percentage loss = 10.9375 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost price = x

Since the marked price is 18.75% above the cost price so the

Marked price = 1.1875 x

When a discount of 25% is allowed on the marked price , the selling price will be Rs. 1425

⇒ Marked price × 0.75 = 1425

⇒ Cost price × ( 1.1875 × 0.75 ) = 1425

⇒ Cost price × ( 0.890625 ) = 1425

⇒ Cost price = 1600

Selling price = 1425

So percentage loss = $\frac{cp - sp}{cp }$ × 100

% Loss = $\frac{175}{1600}$ × 100

% Loss = 10.9375 %
