Step-by-step explanation:
Cost price of 1 goat = Rs. 2200
Selling price of each goat =
2200
×

100
= Rs.2552
Total cost price = cost price of 50 goats = 50 × 2200 = Rs. 110000
10 goats died and he could only sell 40 goats.
Therefore, total selling price = Selling price of 40 goats = 40 × 2552 = Rs.102080
Loss = 110000 - 102080 = Rs.7920
Loss percent =
7920
