Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Let the selling price (SP) be ₹100.
10% loss on SP means loss = 10% of 100 = ₹10.
Cost price (CP) = SP + Loss = 100 + 10 = ₹110.
Loss on cost price = (Loss / CP) × 100 = (10 / 110) × 100 = 9 1/11%.
हिन्दी उत्तर:
मान लीजिए विक्रय मूल्य (SP) ₹100 है।
SP पर 10% हानि का अर्थ है हानि = 100 का 10% = ₹10।
क्रय मूल्य (CP) = SP + हानि = 100 + 10 = ₹110।
क्रय मूल्य पर हानि = (हानि / CP) × 100 = (10 / 110) × 100 = 9 1/11%।
