if the cost price of 10 chairs is equal to the selling price of 16 chairs, find the loss or gain
percentage

10=16[ by cost]

Step-by-step explanation: the cost of 10 chairs is x.

the cost 16 chairs is also x. 10x = 16x

4x is loss.

Profit or Gain = Selling price – Cost price. Loss = Cost price – Selling price. Profit Percentage = [Profit/C.P.]×100. Percentage Loss = [Loss/C.P.]×100.

In simple way, we can say that sp- cp[ when it is a gain], cp -sp[ when it is a loss]. here it is a loss as well as a gain. so do both according to the formula

x= -3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify brackets

4 - x - 1 = 6

step 2: simpilfy

3 - x = 6

step 3: subtract 3 from both sides

-x = 6 - 3

step 4: simpilfy 6 - 3

-x = 3

step 5: multiply both sides by -1

x = -3

what? that isnt a question
