Cessna 172M Skyhawk Performance Numbers

A 172M has been set up for straight and level slow flight. You want to climb at 500 feet per minute. What is the RPM number that you use to get 500 feet per minute climb?

Would you increase the RPM by 500 RPM (ie 100 RPM for each 100 feet of vertical velosity)?
