Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Initial = 4[/tex]

Required

Determine the percentage increase

This is calculated using the following formula:

[tex]\%\ Increase = \frac{|New - Initial|}{Initial} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%\ Increase = \frac{|11 - 4|}{4} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%\ Increase = \frac{|7|}{4} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%\ Increase = \frac{7}{4} * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%\ Increase = 1.75 * 100\%[/tex]

[tex]\%\ Increase = 175 \%[/tex]
