If the selling price of an article is doubled, then its loss percent is converted into equal profit percent. The loss percent on the article is
-
-
26 2 % 3 - 33%
-
33 1 % 3 - 34%
-
Correct Option: C
Let the CP of the article be Rs. 100 and its SP be y
From the question ,
∴ | × 100 | = | × 100 | 100 | 100 |
⇒ 100 – y = 2y – 100
⇒ 3y = 200 ⇒ y = | 3 |
∴ Loss% = 100 – | 3 |
Loss% = | = 33 | % | 3 | 3 |
[because CP of the article = $ 100]
