Answer:

11%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage increase = (New average- previous average)/previous average x 100

New average: 1554

Previous average: 1400

Percentage increase = (1554-1400)/1400 x 100

Percentage increase = 154/1400 x 100

Percentage increase = 0.11 x 100

Percentage increase = 11%

Therefore, the average increased by 11%.
