According to question, The price at which it was sold is equal to :


  • 80 \% \: \: of \: \: 8200


  • (80)/(100) * 8200


  • 80 * 82


  • 6560

The car was sold at $ 6560

Now, loss is equal to :


  • 8200 - 6560


  • \$ \: 1640

Answer:

I don't know for sure, but I'm pretty sure its 1,640.

Explanation:

80% of 8,200 is 6560, and then do 8,200- 6,560, you get 1,640.
