Question

Rohit buys an old bat for Rs. 2320 and spends Rs. 180 on its repairing. If he sells it for Rs. 2400 then what is the loss percentage?

A.

8 percent

B.

5 percent

C.

4 percent

D.

10 percent

Correct option is C

Given:
Cost price = Rs. 2320, Repairing cost = Rs. 180, Selling price = Rs. 2400
Formula Used:
Loss %=(Cost PriceSelling PriceCost Price)×100\text{Loss \%} = \left( \frac{\text{Cost Price} - \text{Selling Price}}{\text{Cost Price}} \right) \times 100​​
Solution:
Total cost price of the bat = Rs. (2320 + 180) = Rs. 2500
Selling price of the bat = Rs. 2400
Loss percentage = 100/2500 × 100% = 4%
