Question

if the cost price of 6 articles is equal to the selling price of 4 articles find the gain percent

Answer 1

Let CP of 1 article = $100
CP of 6 article= $600
SP of 4 article =$600
SP of 1 article = $600/4=$150
P %=50/100×100=50%

Answer 2

Answer:

6 CP = 4 SP

let the cost of one article be 1 rs

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost price of 6 articles = 4 rs

Selling price of 4 articles = 6 rs

SP > CP = profit

Profit = 6 - 4 rs

Profit = 2 rs

$profit\% = \frac{ p}{cp} \times 100 \:$

$profit\% = \frac{2}{4} \times 100$

$profit \: \% = 50\%$
