Answer:

The car dealer must sell 105 cars in May to reach his goal.

Explanation:

Given that the car dealer sold 84 cars in April, and wants to increase his May sales by 25%, to determine the number of cars he must sell to reach his goal it is necessary to perform the following calculation:

84 + (84 x 0.25) = X

84 + 21 = X

105 = X

Therefore, the car dealer must sell 105 cars in May to reach his goal.
