Answer: The country's population decreased by about 2.4% during this time period.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

In 1990, the number of people = 167 million

In 2010, the number of people = 163 million

We need to find the percent decrease in the country's population during this time.

Percentage would be

\dfrac{New-Original}{Original}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{163-167}{167}\times 100\\\\=\dfrac{-4}{167}\times 100\\\\=-2.39\%\\\\=-2.4\%

Hence, the country's population decreased by about 2.4% during this time period.

Anna71 [15]

<u><em>hi there user! Looks like your looking for help, so Mizuki came here to help you!</em></u>

the answer is:

<em>m is 2/3</em>

The whole work I did:

m + 4 ÷ 3 = 2

m + 4/3 = 2

m + 4/3 - 4/3 = 2 - 4/3

m = 6/3 - 4/3

m = 2/3

Anyways hope this helped! qwq
