I can you be a little bit clear I don’t really understand the question.
Move the decimal 2 places to the left.
I = PRT
P = 8000
T = 4
R = 12%...turn to decimal...0.12
now we sub
I = (8000)(0.12)(4)
I = 3840 <==
Assume that 100% = 45 sales and 35% = X sales amount
You can create a ratio to help you solve for x
45 = 100%
x = 35 %
Which is equal to this fraction: (45/x) = (100/35)
Solving for X by cross multiplying and dividing by 100:
[(45)(35)] / 100 = X = 15.75 = 16 sales (rounded up)
You would need at least 16 sales to increase sales total by 35%
