suppose, the CP of the object is x
now if he sell the object in re. 524
here the profit = 524-x
if he sells it in rs 452 then loss= x-452
now, 524-x = x- 452
or, 2x = 524 + 452
or, x = 976/2
or, x = 488
now. the CP of the object is RS 488
now if he sell the object in re. 524
here the profit = 524-x
if he sells it in rs 452 then loss= x-452
now, 524-x = x- 452
or, 2x = 524 + 452
or, x = 976/2
or, x = 488
now. the CP of the object is RS 488
