Answer:
613
Step-by-step explanation:
Selling price = 480
Loss = 20%
We will take out the cost price
formula of cost price - 100 / 100 - loss × selling price
100/ 100 - 20 × selling price
100 / 80 × 480
cost price - 600
cost price - 600
gain -2%
selling price - 100 + profit / 100× cost price
selling price - 102/100 × 600
selling price - 612
The person should sell the article of 612 to gain
2% profit
