A Correct answer
Explanation

Discount = 12% of 1200 = 0.12 * 1200 = 144. Selling price = 1200 - 144 = 1056.

AI explanation

Using the formula Selling Price = Marked Price * (100 - Discount Percentage) / 100, we substitute the known values. The calculation is 1200 * (100 - 12) / 100, which equals 1200 * 0.88. The selling price of the article is Rs. 1056.
