$1.75 V$ $1.75V$

Explanation:

Voltage can be defined as the amount of energy lost or gained by a unit charge as it moves across a circuit from one point to another.

This means $voltage = \frac{energy lost by charge}{charge moving}$ $"voltage" = "energy lost by charge"/"charge moving"$
The charge we are considering in this case is $4 C$ $4C$

The amount of energy lost is $(22 - 15) J = 7 J$ $(22-15)J=7J$

Thus the voltage is $\frac{7}{4} V = 1.75 V$ $7/4V= color(blue)(1.75V)$
