the amount \(\$2,300\) -------> represent the \(100\%\)

so

Find the percentage of the amount \(\$2,643\)

by proportion

\(\frac{100}{2,300} =\frac{x}{2,643} \\\\ 100*2,643 =x*2,300\\\\ x =\frac{100*2,643}{2,300} \\\\ x= 114.91\%\)

Find the percentage gain

\(Percentage\ gain =114.91-100 =14.91\% =15\%\)

therefore

the answer is

The percentage gain on the investment is \(15\%\)
