Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 20%

Given:

Loss of 25% on selling price.

Formula used:

Profit or Loss% = [(Profit or Loss)/Cost Price] × 100

Calculation:

Let the selling Price be Rs. 100.

⇒ Loss = (25/100) × 100

⇒ 25

Cost Price of the goods

⇒ 125

Actual Loss%

⇒ (25/125) × 100

⇒ 20%

∴ The actual loss% is 20%.
