The proflt earned after selling an article for Rs. 1,754 is the same as loss incurred afterselling the article for Rs. 1,492. What is thecost price of the article ?
ARs. 1,623
BRs. 1,523
CRs. 1,689
DRs. 1,589

Correct Answer is: Rs. 1,623

Explanation:

Let the CP of the article be Rs. x
According to the question,
1754 - x = x - 1492
\(\implies\) 2x = 1754 + 1492 = 3246

\(\implies x =\frac{3246}{2}= \text{Rs. }1623\)
