Answer» Let the COST price of 5 mangoes be RS.x So, the cost price of 1 mangoes = Rs.(x/5) The SELLING price of 8 mangoes is EQUAL to the cost price of 5 mangoes. Then, the selling price of 8 mangoes = Rs.x So, the selling price of 1 mangoes = Rs.(x/8) Loss = Cost price – Selling price = Rs.(x/5) – (x/8) = Rs. 3x/40 Hence, the required loss percentage = [(3x/40)/(x/5)] × 100 = 300/8 = 37.5 |
