At a leather shop, 50 jackets were sold in February. The shopkeeper 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 jackets sold increases by 30% in March.

How many leather jackets must the sales team sell in March to receive the bonus?

If 50 jackes have been sold in February and the team will get bonus by selling 30% more jackets in March, then they'll need to sell:
30% * 50 = = 30/100 * 50 = = 3/10 * 50 = = 3 * 5 = = 15 [more jackets]
So they'll get the bonus after selling 50 + 15 = 65 jackets.

The sales team must sell at least 65 leather jackets in March.
The student has asked a mathematics question related to percentage increase. If the leather shop sold 50 jackets in February and wants to increase sales by 30% for March, then the sales team must sell:
50 jackets + (30% of 50 jackets) = 50 + (0.30 * 50) = 50 + 15 = 65 jackets.
Therefore, the sales team needs to sell at least 65 leather jackets in March to receive the bonus.

The sales team needs to sell 65 leather jackets in March to receive the bonus. This is calculated by increasing February's sales of 50 jackets by 30%, which results in an additional 15 jackets. Therefore, the total jackets required are 50 + 15 = 65 jackets.
