The cost price of 10 articles is equal to the selling price of 9 articles.
Let the cost price of one article be ₹ x and the selling price of one article be ₹ y.
∴ 10 x = 9 y x = 9 y 10
Hence, selling price is more than cost price.
So, there will be profit.
Profit = S.P - C.P = ₹ ( y − 9 y 10 ) = ₹ y 10 P r o f i t % = P r o f i t C . P × 100 = y 10 9 y 10 × 100 = 1 9 × 100 = 11.11 %
Hence, the profit percentage is 11.11%.
