    Given the equation p = 3 (s + 100) / 4

    Where,

    p = profit made

    s = sales

    Solving for s from the given equation

    p = 3 (s + 100) / 4

    Multiply both sides by 4

    4p = 3 (s + 100)

    4p = 3s + 300

    Subtract 300 from both sides of the equation

    4p - 300 = 3s

    Same as, 3s = 4p - 300

    s = (4p - 300) / 3

    OR, s = 4p/3 - 100

    If any of these two is in the options, it’s the right answer.
