    Step-by-step explanation:

    This price after discount of 4% = 100 – 4 = 96

    he gives 1 article free on buying of 15 articles : discount of 1 on every set of 16

    Therefore discount on 96 = 96/16 = 6

    Thus % increase on 100 = (100/3)*(3/200)*100 = 50%

    Answer:50%

    Answer:

    Let the MP of 1 article = Rs 1

    MP of 15 article = Rs 15

    SP of (15+1) articles = 15 x 96/100

    = Rs 14.40

    CP of 16 article = 14.40/135 x 100

    = Rs 32/3

    CP of 1 article = 32/3×16

    = Rs 2/3

    Required % = 1/3 x 3/2 x 100

    = 50
