  ## Detailed Solution
  
  Statement I: CP of Article A is 224 less than the SP of Article B,
  
  SPB - CPA = 224.................................................................... (1)
  
  Discount given in Article A is 30% and the profit earned in Article B is 40%,
  
  0.7 x MPA = SPA.................................................................... (2)
  
  SPB = 1.4CPB........................................................................ (3)
  
  We cannot answer the question with the data in statement I.
  
  Statement II: SP of Article A is Rs. 140 more than Article B. On Article A, a markup of Rs. 264 is given.
  
  SPA - SPB = 140................................................................... (4)
  
  MPA = Rs. 264.
  
  We cannot answer the question with the data in statement II.
  
  On combining data given in statement I and statement II, we get
  
  Put the value in equation (2),
  
  0.7 x 264 = SPA
  
  SPA = Rs. 184.8.
  
  Put this in equation (4),
  
  SPB = Rs. 44.8.
  
  So,
  
  MPA - SPB = Rs. 219.2.
  
  So Statements I and II together are sufficient.
  
  Statement III: Discount allowed on Article B is Rs. 56 more than the profit earned on Article A.
  
  MPB - SPB - (SPA - CPA) = 56.............................................. (5)
  
  We cannot answer the question with the data in statement III.
  
  Hence, the correct answer is 1.
explanation: The document contains a math question related to the difference between the marked price (MP) of Article A and the selling price (SP) of Article B. The question is structured with three statements (I, II, and III) and asks which combination of statements is sufficient to answer the question. The document also provides a detailed solution that evaluates each statement and concludes that statements I and II together are sufficient to answer the question.

  ## Detailed Solution
  
  Statement I: CP of Article A is 224 less than the SP of Article B,
  
  SPB - CPA = 224.................................................................... (1)
  
  Discount given in Article A is 30% and the profit earned in Article B is 40%,
  
  0.7 x MPA = SPA.................................................................... (2)
  
  SPB = 1.4CPB........................................................................ (3)
  
  We cannot answer the question with the data in statement I.
  
  Statement II: SP of Article A is Rs. 140 more than Article B. On Article A, a markup of Rs. 264 is given.
  
  SPA - SPB = 140................................................................... (4)
  
  MPA = Rs. 264.
  
  We cannot answer the question with the data in statement II.
  
  On combining data given in statement I and statement II, we get
  
  Put the value in equation (2),
  
  0.7 x 264 = SPA
  
  SPA = Rs. 184.8.
  
  Put this in equation (4),
  
  SPB = Rs. 44.8.
  
  So,
  
  MPA - SPB = Rs. 219.2.
  
  So Statements I and II together are sufficient.
  
  Statement III: Discount allowed on Article B is Rs. 56 more than the profit earned on Article A.
  
  MPB - SPB - (SPA - CPA) = 56.............................................. (5)
  
  We cannot answer the question with the data in statement III.
  
  Hence, the correct answer is 1.
