सुधीर ने ₹7,380 प्रति दर्जन की दर से कुछ सामान खरीदा। उसने उनमें से प्रत्येक को ₹575 की दर से बेचा। उसकी प्रतिशत हानि क्या थी? (दो दशमलव स्थानों तक पूर्णांकित करें)
Detailed Solution & Logic
6.50%
Cost price of 1 item = ₹7380 ÷ 12 = ₹615
Selling price = ₹575
Loss = ₹615 − ₹575 = ₹40
Percentage loss = $ \frac{40}{615} \times 100 = 6.50% $
Answer: 6.50%
