Total assets turnover - 1.87

Explanation:

In this question, we use the DuPont Analysis which is shown below:

Return On Assets = Net profit margin * Total assets turnover

14% = 7.5% * Total assets turnover

So, the total assets turnover = 1.87

And, The Return On Equity = Return On Assets * Equity multiplier

23% = 14% * Equity multiplier

So, the Equity multiplier = 1.64
