Solution : Given: Rohit buys an old bat for Rs. 880 and spends Rs. 120 on its repair, he sells it for Rs. 800 The total cost of the bat (CP) = (880 + 120) = Rs. 1000 Selling price (SP) = Rs. 800 So, the loss percentage = $\frac{\text{CP – SP}}{\text{CP}}×100$ = $\frac{1000-800}{1000}×100$ = 20% Hence, the correct answer is 20%.
