Answer:

70%

Step-by-step explanation:

The method to find out percentage increase is by subtracting the original price from the increased price and making it into a fractional form with the denominator as 10 (out of 100%). So it results to this.

(original price - increased price) / 10

(17 - 10) / 10 = 7/10

7/10 can be converted from its fractional form to 70% i.e.its percentage.

Hope this helps and please mark as the brainliest.
