Well, you could assign a letter to each piece of luggage like so...
A, B, C, D, E, F, G
What you could then do is set it against a table (a configuration table to be precise) with the same letters, and repeat the process again. If the order of these pieces of luggage also has to be taken into account, you'll end up with more configurations.
My answer and workings are below...
35 arrangements without order taken into consideration, because there are 35 ways in which to select 3 objects from the 7 objects.
210 arrangements (35 x 6) when order is taken into consideration.
*There are 6 ways to configure 3 letters.
Alternative way to solve the problem...
Produce Pascal's triangle. If you want to know how many ways in which you can choose 3 objects from 7, select (7 3) in Pascal's triangle which is equal to 35. Now, there are 6 ways in which to configure 3 objects if you are concerned about order.

That's a 33% increase.
I calculated this using the formula:
Where n = the new value (16 in your question), o = the old value (12 in your question) and the result is outputted as a percent increase. You can check that this is correct by finding 33% of 12, adding the result to 12, and checking that the result equals your "new" number.
Note that 33% is only an approximation as your question requires a number rounded to the nearest whole.
