      Solution

      Let the cost price of the article be Rs. lsquo;xrsquo;. Then, marked price of the article = Rs. lsquo;x + 350rsquo; Selling price of the article = Rs. (x + 25) ATQ; 0.60 times; (x + 350) = x + 25 Or, 0.6x + 210 ndash; x = 25 Or, 0.4x = 185 So, x = 462.5 So, marked price of the article = 462.5 + 350 = Rs. 812.50
