Question : 39 of 100

Marks: +1, -0

If the selling price of an article is 25% of its cost price, then what will be the loss percentage?

Solution:

Let the cost price be 100
⇒ Selling price = 25% × cost price
⇒ Selling price = 25% × 100 = 25
⇒

\Loss %={\cost \price − \selling \price}/{\cost \price}×100=75/100×100=75%

∴ The loss is 75%.
