The gain percentage (%) = 25 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Let CP of each pen be ₹ 1.

∴ The CP of 16 pens = The SP of 12 pens = ₹ 1

To find, the gain or loss per cent (%) = ?

∴ Gain = 16 - 12 = 4

We know that,

Gain percentage (%) = \dfrac{Gain}{CP} \times 100

= \dfrac{4}{16} \times 100

= \dfrac{1}{4} \times 100

= 25 %

Thus, the gain percentage (%) = 25 %
