Fill in the blanks in the following table.

	C.P (Rs)	S.P (Rs)	Profit (Rs)	Loss (Rs)	Profit %	Loss %
(1)	5000	6000	.....	.....	.....	.....
(2)	2500	2375	.....	.....	.....	.....
(3)	7216	8118	.....	.....	.....	.....
(4)	8400	7875	.....	.....	.....	.....

Answer 1

(1) Cost Price = C.P = Rs 5000
Selling Price = S.P = Rs 6000
Profit = S.P – C.P
= Rs 6000 – Rs 5000
= Rs 1000
Profit% = $\frac{\mathrm{Profit}}{\mathrm{C}.\mathrm{P}}\times 100$
$$\begin{gathered} =\frac{1000}{5000}\times 100 \\ =\frac{100000}{5000} \\ =20\% \end{gathered}$$

(2) Cost Price = C.P = Rs 2500
Selling Price = S.P = Rs 2375
Loss = C.P – S.P
= Rs 2500 – Rs 2375
= Rs 125
Loss% = $\frac{\mathrm{Loss}}{\mathrm{C}.\mathrm{P}}\times 100$
$$\begin{gathered} =\frac{125}{2500}\times 100 \\ =\frac{12500}{2500} \\ =5\% \end{gathered}$$

(3) Cost Price = C.P = Rs 7216
Selling Price = S.P = Rs 8118
Profit = S.P – C.P
= Rs 8118 – Rs 7216
= Rs 902
Profit% = $\frac{\mathrm{Profit}}{\mathrm{C}.\mathrm{P}}\times 100$
$$\begin{gathered} =\frac{902}{7216}\times 100 \\ =\frac{90200}{7216} \\ =12.5\% \end{gathered}$$

(4) Cost Price = C.P = Rs 8400
Selling Price = S.P = Rs 7875
Loss = C.P – S.P
= Rs 8400 – Rs 7875
= Rs 525
Loss% = $\frac{\mathrm{Loss}}{\mathrm{C}.\mathrm{P}}\times 100$
$$\begin{gathered} =\frac{525}{8400}\times 100 \\ =\frac{52500}{8400} \\ =6.25\% \end{gathered}$$

	C.P (Rs)	S.P (Rs)	Profit (Rs)	Loss (Rs)	Profit %	Loss %
