    A) 25                                

    B) \[33\frac{1}{3}\]

    C) 20                                

    D) \[28\frac{4}{7}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Let the SP of 60 articles be Rs. x. \[\therefore \] SP of 15 articles \[=Rs.\frac{x}{4}\] \[\therefore \] CP of 60 articles\[=x-\frac{x}{4}=Rs.\frac{3x}{4}\] \[\therefore \]      Gain percentage \[=\frac{x}{4}\times \frac{4}{3x}\times 100\]             \[=\frac{100}{3}=33\frac{1}{3}%\]
