A company's Q3 marketing memo states a goal to increase customer engagement by 15% across all regions. A bar chart displays current customer engagement scores for four regions (North: 65%, South: 72%, East: 58%, West: 70%). To achieve the Q3 goal, which region requires the largest percentage point increase in engagement from its current score?
