let CP of 1 article = 1
therefore, CP of 15 articles = 15
SP of 12 articles = CP of 15 articles = 15....(1)

Now CP of 12 articles = 12
And SP of 12 articles = 15....(by 1)

Hence,Profit = SP-CP = 15-12 = 3
% profit = 3/12*100 = 25%

Selling price of 12 article =Rs 12
Gain = 15 - 12 = 3

Gain%=(Gain/Cost)∗100)%=(300%12)%=25%
