Find the loss percentage and S.P. where loss amount is given. C.P. S.P. Loss Loss% ₹ 815 ₹ 163

Given, Cost price of an item is ₹ 815 . Loss after selling of an item ₹ 163 . We know that, Loss = C . P - S . P S . P = C . P - Loss = ₹ 815 - ₹ 163 = ₹ 652 Now, Loss % = Loss × 100 C . P % = 163 × 100 815 % = 20 % Hence, C.P S.P Loss Loss% ₹ 815 ₹ 652 ₹ 163 20 %

Find the loss percentage and S.P. where loss amount is given. C.P. S.P. Loss Loss% ₹ 40 ₹ 2

Given , Cost price of an item is ₹ 40 . Loss after selling an item is ₹ 2 . We know that, Loss = C . P - S . P S . P = C . P - Loss = ₹ 40 - ₹ 2 = ₹ 38 Loss % = Loss × 100 C . P % = 2 × 100 40 % = 5 % Hence, C.P S.P Loss Loss% ₹ 40 ₹ 38 ₹ 2 5 %
