एक उत्पाद पर 49% लाभ हुआ। यदि क्रय मूल्य और विक्रय मूल्य दोनों के आंकड़े आपस में बदल दिए जाएँ, तो बिक्री पर होने वाला हानि का प्रतिशत (दशमलव के दो स्थानों तक पूर्णांकित) ज्ञात कीजिए।
Detailed Solution & Logic
Correct Answer:
32.89%
Profit = 49%
Let CP = 100
Then SP = $149$
Now values are interchanged:
New CP = 149, New SP = 100
Loss = $149 - 100 = 49$
Loss % =
$ \frac{49}{149} \times 100$
$= 32.89%$
✅ Final Answer:
32.89%
