Answer:

let the selling price of each article be x

therefore, selling price of 15 articles is 15x

Step-by-step explanation:

given, profit equal to selling price of 3 articles

profit = 3 SP = 3x

We know that

profit = selling price - cost price

3x = 15x - CP

CP = 15x - 3x

CP = 12x

profit% = profit x 100

cost price

= 3x x 100

12x

= 25%
