If the selling price of 20 articles is equal to the cost price of 15 articles, then what is the los​

Answer 1

Answer:

₹ 1000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the cost price of article as 100

So,

Loss = 100 - 4 = 96

If the C.P. is 100 then the S.P. is 96

If the C.P. is 1 then the S.P. is 96/100

If the C.P. is unknown, S.P. is ₹ 960 and loss is 4%

then the C.P. is (100/100 - Loss%) × S.P.

=> (100/100 - 4) × 960

=> 100/96 × 960 (960 will be cut down to 10 with 96 which will be cut down to 1)

=>100/1 × 10 = ₹ 1000

So, the answer will be ₹ 1000
