QUESTION

  • Arthur RUNS an ELECTRONICS shop. He recently bought a NEW air CONDITIONER for ₹32,000 . He sold the AC for ₹28,000.What is Arthur's loss percent?

SOLUTION

Bought a new AC = ₹32,000

Sold that AC for = ₹28,000

Cost Price = 32,000

Selling Price = 28,000

Formula to FIND loss percent:

32,000-28,000 = 4,000

LOSS % =

\huge\frac{loss}{cost \: price}   \times 100

LOSS = 4,000

COST PRICE = 32,000

\huge \frac{4000}{32000}   \times  100 = 12.5\%

ANSWER 12.5%
