Answer:

The loss is $120 and the loss percentage is 8%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

SP of a car = $1,380

CP of a car = $1,500

As CP > SP, it means there is a loss in selling of that car.

Loss = CP - SP

= $1,500 - $1,380

= $120

Loss percentage,

[tex]\%=\dfrac{loss}{CP}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{120}{1500}\times 100\\\\=8\%[/tex]

Hence, the loss is $120 and the loss percentage is 8%.
