answer:
Let the Cost Price of one notebook be Rs 1.
therefore , cost Price of 16 notebooks = Rs 16
And Selling Price of 12 notebooks = Rs 16
or selling Price of one notebook = 16/12
therefore , Selling Price of 16 notebooks = 16/12*16
Gain = selling Price of 16 Notebooks - Cost Price of 16 Notebooks
=16*16/12 - 16
=16*16 - 16*12 /12
=16 (16 - 12)/12
=16*4/12
=16/3
hence gain % = Gain / Cost Price of 16 Notebooks *100
= (16/3)/16*100
=16/3*1/16*100
= 100/3
Gain %=33.33%
