33.3% approximately bro since
Let the CP of each egg be Rs.x.
Then,
CP of 12 eggs=Rs.12
SP of 12 eggs=CP of 16 eggs=Rs.16
now,gain=SP-CP=Rs.(16-12)=Rs.4
gain%=gain/cp*100
         =(4/12*100)%=33.3%
Hence,the gain=33.3%

Let the CP of one egg be x.

SP of 12 eggs = CP of 16 eggs

SP of 12 eggs = 16x

CP of 12 eggs = 12x

Profit=SP-CP

=16x - 12x

=4x

Profit = 4x / 12x * 100

==> 100/3%

===> 33.333%

Hope it helps you
