CP of one article = 112.50 / 15 = 7.50
SP of one article = 108 / 12 = 9.00
Profit by selling one article = 9.00 - 7.50 = 1.50

Therefore no. of articles to be sold for profit of Rs.75
= Total profit required / Profit per article = 75 / 1.50 = 50

CP per article = 112.50/15 = Rs7.50 per article
SP per article = 108/12 = Rs 9 per article

Gain = 9-7.5 = Rs 1.5/ article

Gain% = (1.5/7.5)*100 = 20%

Total profit = Rs75
Profit per article = Rs 1.5

No of articles sold = 75/1.5 = 50 articles
