Presentation:
Prices Related to Buying and Selling
Prices related to an item
Prices related to an item are: (i) Selling price
(ii) Cost price
Selling price (SP) is the price at which a product is sold out.
Cost price (CP) is the buying price of an item.
Profit = Selling price – Cost price
Loss = Cost price – Selling price
If SP > CP , then it is profit.
If SP = CP , then it is neither profit nor loss.
If CP > SP , then it is loss.
Finding the profit or loss percentage
Profit Percentage=Profit/CostPrice×100
Loss Percentage=Loss/CostPrice×100.
Percentages
Percentages are ratios expressed as a fraction of 100.
Percentages are represented by the symbol ‘%’.
Comparing percentages when denominator is not 100
When a ratio is not expressed in fraction of 100, then convert the fraction to
an equivalent fraction with denominator 100.
Converting percentages to fractions/decimals
0.25=25/100=14
0.225=225/1000=940
Teaching Aids:
Fake currency, printed items with prices
Recipe cards or ingredient lists.
