Take CP=16x,sp=12x
Here cp>sp so loss
Loss = 4x
Loss%=(loss/cp)100
=(4x/16x)100
=(1/4)100
=25%
Here cp>sp so loss
Loss = 4x
Loss%=(loss/cp)100
=(4x/16x)100
=(1/4)100
=25%

Answer:
May be the answer is 25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let CP be 16x, SP be 12x
CP is greater than SP then the loss
Loss =16x-12x =4x
Loss%= 4x/16x ×100
=25%
