Answer:
The required single decimal multiplier would be 1.113.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be a number,
After increasing by 5%,
The new number = x + 5% of x
= x + 0.05x
= 1.05x
Again after increasing by 6%,
Final number = 1.05x + 6% of 1.05x
= 1.05x + 0.06(1.05x)
= 1.05x + 0.063x
= 1.113x
Hence, the required single decimal multiplier would be 1.113.
