In this question, Cost price and selling price of saree is given and we asked to find loss and loss percentage which we can find by using the given details.
given that,
Cost price=2240 rs.
selling price=2147 rs.
Loss = ?
Loss percentage = ?
we know that,
Loss = Cost price – selling price
=2240 – 2147
Loss = 93 rs.
and , Loss percentage = ( loss / cost price ) * 100
= ( 93/2240 ) * 100
Loss percentage = 4.15% 😀
