Question

the cost price of 20 articles is the same as selling price of 16 articles find the profit percent
please helpppp​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the cost price of 1 article be Rs.1

then cost of 20 articles RS. 20

Cp= 20

let SP of 1 article = Rs.20

then 16 articles will be 16 rupees

according to shopkeeper

s p = 20 and cp = 16

here SP is greater than CP

Then gain = 20 - 16 = 4

gain percent = gain/cp*100

4/16*100

25%

so, gain percent will be equals 25%
