Question

cost price of 20 articles is the same as the selling price of X articles if the profit is 25% then what is the value of x ​

Answer 1

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, 1 article price = Re.1

Profit = 20 - x

Profit(%) = {(20 - x)/x} * 100 = 25

or, (20 - x)/x = 1/4

or, 80 - 4x = x

or, 5x = 80

or, x = 16
