Step-by-step explanation:

Given the profit earned after selling an article for Rs 1680 is the same as the loss incurred after selling the article for Rs 1512. what is the cost price of the article​

  • Let the cost price of the article be Rs p
  • According to the question profit earned after selling is same as loss incurred after selling the article. Therefore
  • 1680 – p = p – 1512
  • 2p = 1680 + 1512
  • 2p = 3192
  • Or p = 3192 / 2
  • Or p = Rs 1596
  • Therefore cost price of the article will be Rs 1596
