Marks: +1, -0

By selling 66 metres of cloth a man loses the selling price of 22 metres. Find the loss per cent.

Solution:

(b) Loss = C.P. of 66 metres – S.P. of 66 metres
= S.P. of 22 metres
⇒ C.P. of 66 metres = S.P. of 88 metres

\text"% loss"\text"loss"/\text"C.P. of 66 metres"×100

= \text"S.P of 22 metres" /\text"C.P of 66 metres"×100

\text"=S.P. of 22 metres"/\text"S.P.of 88 metres"×100

= 22/88× 100= 25%
