Answer:

75%

Step-by-step explanation:

When we multiply a number by 1.75.

Now, note that: [tex]1.75=\dfrac{175}{100} =\dfrac{100}{100}+\dfrac{75}{100}=1+75\%[/tex]

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
