Answer 1

Answer:

11) 83.3%

12) 12.5%

13) Rs 200

14) Rs 200

15) Rs 750

Step-by-step explanation:

11) loss: 1 - ⅙ = ⅚ of the cost price

Percentage loss:

⅚ × 100 = 83.3%

12) loss is ⅛ of the cost price

Percentage loss:

⅛ × 100 = 125%

13) Profit = 20% of 1000

20/100 × 1000 = 200

14) Profit = 10% of 2000

10/100 × 2000 = 200

15) Loss = 15% of 5000

15/100 × 5000 = 750
