Explanation:

- Marked Price (MP): It's the original price marked on the article before any discounts.

- Cost Price (CP): The price at which the shopkeeper buys the article. He gets a 30% discount on the MP.

- CP = 70% of MP

- Selling Price (SP): The price at which the shopkeeper sells the article. He gives a 5% discount on the MP.

- SP = 95% of MP

- Profit Earned: The difference between Selling Price and Cost Price of the article.

- Profit = SP - CP

- Given Profit is Rs. 65

- Calculating Marked Price:

- \( CP = \frac{70}{100} \times MP \)

- \( SP = \frac{95}{100} \times MP \)

- \( SP - CP = 65 \)

- \( \left(\frac{95}{100} \times MP\right) - \left(\frac{70}{100} \times MP\right) = 65 \)

- \( \left(\frac{25}{100} \times MP\right) = 65 \)

- \( MP = \frac{65 \times 100}{25} = 260 \)
