    Step-by-step explanation:

    100% = ₤50

    x = ₤32

    ₤3200%= ₤50x

    ₤50. ₤50

    x = 64%

    100% – 64% = 36%

    Answer:

    36% loss

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To calculate percentage loss

    \frac{loss}{original} × 100%

    loss = £50 – £32 = £18, then

    percentage loss = \frac{18}{50} × 100% = 18 × 2 % = 36%
