Question

12

Answer 1

Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

When we multiply a number by 1.75.

Now, note that: $1.75=\dfrac{175}{100} =\dfrac{100}{100}+\dfrac{75}{100}=1+75\%$

Therefore, when we multiply a number by 1.75, it is the same as increasing by 75%.

Let us take an example say the number 15.

• 15 X 1.75 =26.25

If we increase 15 by 75%, we have:

• 15+(0.75X 15)=15+11.25=26.25
