Answer

To find the marked price of the article, we can use the relationship between the marked price (MP), selling price (SP), and discount (D). The formula we will use is:

\[ \text{MP} = \text{SP} + \text{D} \]

### Step-by-Step Solution:

1. **Identify the given values**:
- Selling Price (SP) = Rs. 2275
- Discount (D) = Rs. 355

2. **Use the formula to calculate the marked price**:
\[ \text{MP} = \text{SP} + \text{D} \]
Substituting the values we have:
\[ \text{MP} = 2275 + 355 \]

3. **Perform the addition**:
\[ \text{MP} = 2630 \]

4. **Conclusion**:
The marked price of the article is Rs. 2630.
