Let us assume cost price of one pen is rs 10
So cp of 12 pens =120
Sp of one pen is rs 12
Sp of 10 pens =rs 120
Sp of 2 more pens =12*2=24
Profit =24÷120*100=2*10=20%

If the Cost price of 12 pens is equal to selling price of 10 pens. The benefit percentage is 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

CP of 12 pens = SP of 10 pens

Let the CP of 1 pen be x

Then, CP of 12 pens = 12x

SP of 10 pens = 12x

SP of 1 pen = 1.2x

SP of 12 pens = 12 × 1.2x = 14.4x

Profit = SP - CP

         = 14.4x - 12x

         = 2.4x

Profit Percentage = (2.4x/12x) × 100

                             = 20%

Hope this answer is helpful.
