the profit earned by selling an article for $ 832 is equal to the loss incurred when the same article is sold for $ 448 . what should be the sale price for making 40 % profit ?
let c . p . = $ x . then , 832 - x = x - 448 2 x = 1280 = > x = 640 required s . p . = 140 % of $ 640 = $ 896 . c
add(divide(multiply(divide(add(832, 448), const_2), 40), const_100), divide(add(832, 448), const_2))
