Heya...
Here is your answer --

CP of 16 notebooks = SP of 12 notebooks

=> Let the CP of 1 notebook be ₹1
=> CP of 16 notebooks = ₹1×16 = ₹16
=> SP of 12 notebooks = ₹16
=> SP of 1 notebook = ₹16/12 = ₹4/3

SP>CP
Gain = SP - CP
Gain = ₹ (4/3 - 1)
Gain = ₹1/3

Gain % = Gain/CP ×100
Gain % = 1/3 ×100
Gain % = 33 1/3%

HOPE IT HELPS....!!!

Thatsomeone: gain=33⅓% not 33%
Thatsomeone: ⅓ is important
