Heya!!

Here's ur answer dude:-

$according \: to \: the \: question\\ \\ \\ cp \: of \: 18 \: pens \: = sp \: of \: 16 \: pens \\ \\ cp \: of \: 18 \: pens \: = 16 x \\ \\ sp \: of \: 16 \: pens \: = 18x \\ \\ here \: sp \: > cp \: so \: profit \: occurs \\ \\ profit \: = sp - cp \\ \\ = 18x - 16x \\ \\ = 2x \\ \\ so \: profit\% = \frac{profit}{cp} \times 100 \\ \\ = \frac{2x}{16x} \times 100 \\ \\ = 12.5\%profit........$
