Mark me Brainlest answer
Answer:
rate of buying= 15 Rs. per 24 R
cost of 1 R = 15/24 Rs
# rate of selling = Rs. 10 per 18 R
cost of 1 R = 10/18 Rs.
# gain/ loss = s. p- c. p
= 10/18-15/24
= 40- 45/ 72
= -5/72
so. s. p< c. p
so loss % = loss/c. p× 100
= 5/72/15/24 × 100
= 100/ 9
= 11.11 ( approx) (ans)
