If CP of 4 toffees equals to the S P of 3 toffees , find loss or gain percent.

${\tt{\red{\underline{\underline{\huge{AnSwer:}}}}}}$

Let Cp of 1 toffee be Rs.x

Cp of 4 toffees = Rs.4x

Sp of 3 toffees = Cp of 4 toffees

=4x

$sp \: of \: 1 \: toffees \: = \frac{4x}{3}$

Profit(P)=Sp-Cp

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \frac{4x}{3} - x$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \frac{4x - 3x}{3}$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \frac{x}{3}$

Now,

$p = \frac{p}{x} \times 100$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \frac{ \frac{x}{3} }{x} \times 100$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \frac{x}{3} \times \frac{1}{x} \times 100$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: = \frac{100}{3}$

$\: \: \: \: \: \: \: = 33.33$

Hence Profit% is 33.33...
