37%

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

In the first case,

The net income is

= Sales revenue - fixed cost

where,

Sales revenue = Number of students * TI charges per student

= 750 students * $250

= $187,500

So, the net income is

= $187,500 - $85,000

= $102,500

Now on the second case

The net income is

= Sales revenue - fixed cost

where,

Sales revenue = Number of students * TI charges per student

= 900 students * $250

= $225,000

So, the net income is

= $225,000 - $85,000

= $140,000

So, the percentage increase is

= ($140,000 - $102,500) : ($102,500)

= 37%
