Lets assume the ITM % is 30% and there are 35 players and you got 8th place

A quick idea for the formula would be:

Players * ITM% * Your Place = Your Strength (Lowest is better)

35 * 30 * 8 = 84 Strength Of Tournament

ITM% = 40% how would that change it

35 * 40 * 8 = 112 Strength of Tournament
If you are saying that lower is better, this scenario doesn't work. If 40% are ITM the tournament should be stronger not weaker. You show a 40% ITM tournament with a 112 Strenght of Tournament and a 30% ITM with a 84 making that appear stronger. Maybe you meant to say that higher is better?

30 * 30% * 25th = 225 Strength of Tournament
I'm not sure why the place that you finish should affect the strength of tournament. The strength of tournament should be something that is set at the start of the tournament (when all players have entered) and then it shouldn't change. Your final placement should only affect your contribution to the Strength of Tournament for the next tournament. Am I missing something?
