According to the question
C.P of 16 notebooks =S.P of 12 notebooks
Let C.P of 1 notebook be Rs 100x
Therefore C.P of 16 books =Rs1600x
Therefore C.P of 12books =Rs 1200x
Therefore S.P of 12 books =Rs 1600x
Therefore profit = S.P - C.P
=Rs 400x
Therefore gain %= (400x/ 1200x) X 100
=100/3%
=33+1/3%
This is the answer in mixed fraction.
I hope this helps.
