Solution;-

Let the CP of 6 pencils = Rs x

Now, 

CP of 1 pencil = (x/6)

Now, 

SP of 5 pencils = SP of 1 pencil = (x/5)

Here,

 SP > CP, 

Now,

gain = SP−CP = x/5−x/6 

=) 6x−5x/30 = x/30

Again,

Gain% = [gain/CP×100]

=> X/30x × 100

=> 100/30

=> 10/3

=>3.33%

Hence, Gain Percentage = 3.33%
