    The manager could perform scalar multiplication on Matrix A, using the scalar 1.15.

    Increasing the price by 15% would mean we are taking 100% of the value + another 15%; 100+15 = 115%; 115% = 115/100 = 1.15.

    Multiplying every value in Matrix A by 1.15 will give the price raised by 15%.
