Answer:
The percentage gain in the pens is 33.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
A dozen of pens contain 12pens
Let the selling price of one ball point pen be x then the profit wil be equal to 4x
The selling price of the 12 pens will be = 12× x=12x
The cost price of the 12 lens will be = 12x - 4x=8x
The percentage profit is given by:
=profit/cost price×100
=4x/12x × 100%=33.33%
