Question

the cost price of 5 identical articles is equal to SP of 4 articles. calculate the profit percent or loss percent made if all the articles bought have been sold .​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

cp=4

sp=4

profit = 4-4

= 0

profit % = 0/4 multiplied by 100

= 0

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let CP of 1 article= Rs.x

so, CP of 4 article= Rs.4x

and, CP of 5 article= Rs.5x

SP of 4 articles= CP of 5 articles= Rs.5x (given)

Now,

CP of 4 article= Rs.4x. (proved)

SP of 4 article= Rs.5x. (proved)

because, SP is greater than CP

Gain = 5x-4x= Rs.x

Gain %= x*100%/4x=25%

So, Gain =25%
