At a leather shop, 50 leather jackets were sold in
February. The shop keeper at the store wants to
Encourage the sales team to sell more leather jackets by
Giving all the sales team members a bonus if the number
Of leather jacket sold increases by 30% in March. How many leather jackets
Must the sales team sell in March to receive the bonus?

What have you worked out so far? (We will help, but we don't do the entire problem for you.)

Think of it in this way. If the number of leather jackets increases by 30%, that means the number increased will be 30% of 50.
Know how to find 30% of 50? Remember, when you drop the % sign, the decimal point moves 2 places to the left.
Then when you find that, then add it to 50.
Best of luck.
