To find :-

• In how many rupee should be sell the article to get 15% profit ?

Step by step explanation :-

Selling price of the article = Rs. 336

Rupees gained = Rs. 36

To get 15% profit, We need to find marked price first, By using the formula given below :-

$\underline{ \boxed{ \star \sf \purple{\: Marked \: price = Selling \: price - Profit \: price }}}$

➝ 336 - 36

➝ Rs. 300

To get profit %, We need to apply the formula given below :-

$\boxed{ \sf \purple{\dfrac{Profit \: \%}{100} \times Marked \: price}}$

➝ $\bf \frac{15}{100}\times 300$

By cutting off all the zeroes, We get :-

➝ 15 × 3

➝ Rs. 45

Now, By adding marked and Profit if he sell for 15% , We get :-

➝ 300 + 45

➝ Rs. 345

Therefore, He should sell the article for 345 rupees to get 15% profit.
