cost price of 21 apples is equal to selling price of 18 apples.what is the profit %?

• if sp of 1 apple is 1 rs
  then cp of 21 apples is 18rs
  sp of 21 apples is 21 rs
  profit is 21-18 ie 3
  profit %=3/18*100
  so profit is 16.67

• %profit=(goods left/goods sold)*100.
  =((21-18)/18)*100
  =3/18*100
  =1/6*100
  =50/3
  =16.66% ans.

• if CP of m artical is equal to SP of n artical... then
  gain or loss=(m-n)/n...here m is 21 and n is 18...
  so,(21-18)/18*100=16.67

• cp of 21 apple = sp of 18 apple
  gain = cp of 3 apple
  gain % = (100* gain)/ cp
  gain = 100*3/21= 14.28%

• let c.p of 1 apple be x
  cp of 21 apples=21x
  s.p of 18 apple=21x(as given)
  ie he has a profit of 3apples
  hence p%=3x/21x)*100
  ans=14.2%
