Question:

Shiv Purchased a table for ₹135000 and sold it for ₹110000 what is loss percentage?

Options:

$\frac{270}{22}\%$

$\frac{2200}{27}\%$

30%

$\frac{500}{27}\%$

Correct Answer:

$\frac{500}{27}\%$

Explanation:

Loss = Cost price - Selling price

= 135000 - 110000

= 25000

Loss percentage = \(\frac{Loss}{C.P.}\)  × 100

= \(\frac{25000}{135000}\)  × 100 

= \(\frac{500}{27}\)%
