the profit earned by selling an article for 892 is equal to the loss incurred when the same article is sold for 448 . what should be the sale price of the article for making 50 per cent profit ?
let the profit or loss be x and 892 – x = 448 + x or , x = 444 ⁄ 2 = 222 \ cost price of the article = 892 – x = 448 + x = 670 \ sp of the article = 670 × 150 ⁄ 100 = 1005 answer b
multiply(divide(add(892, 448), const_2), add(const_1, divide(50, const_100)))
