1. **State the problem:** Amina bought a pair of shoes for 2500 shillings and sold them at a 20% loss. We need to find the selling price.
2. **Formula used:** Selling Price (SP) when there is a loss is given by:
$$SP = CP - (Loss\% \times CP)$$
where $CP$ is the cost price.
3. **Calculate the loss amount:**
Loss\% = 20\% = 0.20
Loss amount = $0.20 \times 2500 = 500$
4. **Calculate the selling price:**
$$SP = 2500 - 500 = 2000$$
5. **Answer:** Amina sold the shoes for 2000 shillings.
