Answer 1

just multiply the cost ( $25 per share) by 1.5 

$25 x 1.5 = $37.50

Answer 2

Answer:

$37.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Carl bought some stock at = $25.00 per share.

The stock increased to $1\frac{1}{2}$ times its value.

$1\frac{1}{2}$ times or  $\frac{3}{2}$ times  = 1.5 times

So we will multiply the value with 1.5 times

Now the value of stock per share = 25.00 × 1.5

                                                        = $37.50

The new value of the stock per share is $37.50
