Question

find the profit or loss percentage if selling price of 6 articles is equal to cost price of 8 articles. ​

Answer 1

Let, CP of 1 article be rs 1

Therefore, CP of 6 articles= rs 6

Given,

SP of 6 articles= CP of 8 articles= rs 8

Since, SP > CP, it's a Profit.

Profit= 8-6= 2

Therefore,

Profit%= 2/6 *100%

= 33.33 %
