The percentage profit earned by selling an article for Rs. 1920 isequal to the percentage loss incurred by selling the same article for Rs.1280. At what price should the article be sold to make 25% profit?

• Let Cost .Price . be Rs. x.
  
  Then,
  ((1920 - x)* 100)/x = ((x - 1280)*100)/x
  
  1920 - x = x - 1280
  
  2x = 3200
  
  x = 1600
  
  Required S.P. = 125% of Rs. 1600 = Rs 2000.
  so Answer is 2000.
