Answer:

He made a loss of 6.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

Loss percentage =  [tex]\frac{Loss}{Cost price} * 100[/tex]

Loss = 50

Cost price = 750

Hence, Loss percentage=

[tex]\frac{50}{750} *100[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{20}{3}[/tex] = 6.66 %

He made a loss of 6.6666%.

This amount can be rounded up to 6.67%

Hope this helps.
