Question

The CP of 4 articles as same as the SP of 6 articles.Find loss %.

Answer 1

let cost price of 1 article be 1 rupee

then , cost of price of 4 articles = 4 rs

cost of 6 articles = sp of 4 articles = 6 rs

gain = sp - CP

=> gain = 6-4 => 2 rs

gain % = gain/cp × 100

=> gain % = 2/4×100

=> gain % = 50%

hope this helps
