"sometime , setting up an equation is an easy way to go with : 350 + 0.06 ( x - 1000 ) = 0.08 x x = 14,500 ans : d"
divide(add(divide(subtract(350, multiply(divide(6, const_100), 1,000)), subtract(divide(8, const_100), divide(6, const_100))), divide(subtract(350, multiply(divide(6, const_100), 1,000)), subtract(divide(8, const_100), divide(6, const_100)))), 1,000)
