A 3.9% increase, which is exactly the average inflation in 2023.
But, if everything raised by the same percentage, the actual number difference between those two numbers also gets larger by the same percentage.
100 is 90 larger than 10.
110 is 99 larger than 11.
Larger difference, same percentage increase.
