Let $C.P.$ of goods be $Rs. x / e a c h$

$	herefore \quad$ Total $C.P. =Rs. x 	imes y$

$S.P$ for $\frac{4 y}{5}$ items $=1.1 x 	imes \frac{4 y}{5}$

$S.P.$ $=\frac{4.4}{5} x y$

$	herefore \quad \operatorname{loss}  \%=\frac{	ext { C.P. }-	ext { S.P. }}{	ext { C.P. }} 	imes 100$

$=\frac{x y-\frac{4.4}{5} x y}{x y} 	imes 100$

$=\left(1-\frac{4.4}{5}ight) 	imes 100=\frac{0.6}{5} 	imes 100=12 \%$
