    The cost price of 20 articles is same as the selling price of 16 articles. Find the gain percent.
    Ans : C.P. of 20 articles = S.P. of 16 articles.
    Let C.P. of 1 article = Re. 1
    C.P. of 20 articles = Rs.20
    and C.P. of 16 articles = Rs.16
    S.P. of 16 articles = Rs.20
    [S.P. of 16 articles = C.P. of 20 articles]
    Gain = Rs.20 - Rs.16 = Rs.4
    Gain% = 4/16 × 100
    = (4/16 × 100)
    = 25%
