Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

let the cost of 1article = x

Then, the cost price of 15articles = 15x

SP of 16articles = cost of 15articles = 15x

SP of 1article = 15x

16

Loss = CP - SP

= x - 15x = { x - 15x} = {x × 16 - 15x}

16 {1 - 16 } {1 × 16 16}

16x - 15x = x

16 = 16

Loss% = {Loss × 100}% = {x/16 × 100}% =

CP x

{x × 1 × 100}% = 6.25%

16 x

therefore loss = x/16 and loss% 6.25%
