Answer:

20.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of stock increased in Company A = 20% of 1790

           = 0.20 * 1790 = $ 358

Investor's stock in company A this year = 1790 + 358 = $ 2148

Amount of stock increased in Company B = 22% of 1000

           = 0.22 * 1000= $ 220

Investor's stock in company B this year = 1000 + 220 = $ 1220

Total amount in investor's stock account  = 2148 + 1220 = $ 3368

Increased amount = 3368 - 2790 = $ 578

Increase percentage = [tex]\frac{578}{2790}*100[/tex] = 20.71

                                   = 20.7%
