Hello all, I need some assistance with this formula -

I have a sheet that calculates a gap between two given values, and then represents that gap against one of the values as a percentage.

Example:​
Value 1: 1000
Value 2: 700​
Gap (Value 1 - Value 2): 300​
Gap %: (Gap / Value 2): 43% (rounded up)​


I would like to put a formula into my sheet that will tell me what number Value 2 needs to equal to produce a Gap % of 25%.

Using same Example:​
Value 1: 1000
Value 2: ?​
Gap (Value 1 - Value 2): ?​
Gap %: (Gap / Value 2): 25%​

Is this possible to achieve?

Thanks in advance -
