Cost Price (CP) of 6 articles = Rs. 5
CP of 1 article = 5/6
Selling Price (SP) of 5 articles = Rs. 6
SP of 1 article = 6/5
Profit = SP – CP
= (6/5) – (5/6)
= (36 – 25) / 30
= 11/30
Profit Percentage = (Profit/CP) × 100
= ((11/30) / (5/6)) × 100
= (11/30) × (6/5) × 100
= 44%
The gain percentage is 44%.
