Answer 2

Given :

Selling price of 4 articles = cost price of 6 articles .

So, selling price of 4 articles = 6x

Solution :

According to the Question,

$\implies\sf{Gain\% = \frac{selling \: price - cost \: price}{cost \: price} } \times 100$

$\implies\sf{∴Gain\% = \frac{6x - 4x}{4x} \times 100 }$

$\implies\sf{Gain\% = \frac{2x}{4x} \times 100 = 50\%}$

Hence, Gain percent = 50%.
