- The selling price of the article is Rs1,380 after a 20% discount.

- To find the marked price, consider the formula: Selling Price = Marked Price × (1 - Discount Percentage).

- So, Rs1,380 = Marked Price × (1 - 0.20).

- Simplifying gives Rs1,380 = Marked Price × 0.80.

- Divide both sides by 0.80 to find the marked price: Marked Price = Rs1,380 ÷ 0.80.

- Calculating gives Marked Price = Rs1,725.

- The correct option is:

- Option 3: Rs1,725
