A - a removes both a’s from equation, then you’re left with b + bsquared, since they are unknown values you cannot combine them, even if it is the same letter, you can only add and subtract unknown values with their same letters together.
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%

Answer:
We write this like this:
49=35%x
and we want to find the x.
let's invert the sides:
35%x=49.
35 is equal to 0.35
0.35*x=49
and now we only divide both sides by 0.35:
x=140
so the answer is 140.
(aternatively we can do it through fractions:
35/100*x=49
divide both sides by 7:
5/100*x=7
simplify the first fraction
1/20*x=7
and multiply by 20:
x=140
