    Percentage target formula

    Hi guys,

    I'm looking for a spreadsheet that will tell me what I need to hit target
    For instance if I have 100 sweets but sold 75 and my target is 90% it will tell me how many sweets I need to sell to reach target

    I would like to be able to alter the target each week

    Any ideas

    Lets say:
    100 (sweets) in A1
    75 (sold ) in A2
    90% (target) in A3
    in A4 (still need to sell) write formula
    Formula: copy to clipboard

    75+15 = 90, not 100.
