Answer:

1.1286

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing something by 14% is the same as taking 114% of it, and decreasing it by 1% is the same as taking 99% of it. 114% is 1.14 as a decimal, and 99% is 0.99 as a decimal, so multiplying the two together, we get the single decimal

1.14 · 0.99 = 1.1286

12.86% or a multiplier of 1.1286.

Assume the number 100.
