Question

If the sale price of 12 articles is equal to the cost price of 18 articles.what is profit%

Answer 1

Answer:50%

Step-by-step explanation:

if we take CP of 1 article as x then CP of total articles 12X

So, 12x = 18x

Profit= 18x-12x = 6x

Profit Percentage =

$\frac{Profit X 100}{CP}$

$\frac{6x X 100}{12x}$

= 50%
