Step-by-step explanation:

----------------------------------------------------------------------

suppose, the SP of 1 pen is x & cp of 1 pen is y Now, the SP of 12 pens is 12x & cp of 14 is 14y,

x/y = 14/12 = 7/6,

now x = sp of 1 pen = 7 & y = cp of 1 pen = 6,

now gain = sp-cp 7-6 = 1,

gain% = gain/cp×100 = 1/6×100=50/3=16.66 Something.

Answer 2

Answer:

if cp of x article is equal to sp of y article and where x is greater than y then profit %

=( x - y )/y *100

=( 14-12)/12 *100

= 2/12 *100

= 100/6

= 16.6 % profit
