the profit earned by selling an article for 852 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 852 – x = 448 + x or , x = 404 ⁄ 2 = 202 \ cost price of the article = 852 – x = 448 + x = 650 \ sp of the article = 650 × 150 ⁄ 100 = 975 answer b"
multiply(divide(add(852, 448), const_2), add(const_1, divide(50, const_100)))
