Answer: Lets call the number x

decreased means subtraction.  If x is decreased bt 23% then the result is

x-23%(x)  =  x-(23/100)x    or x-.23x

x-.23x=539

.77x=539

x=539/.77

x=700

check:  700-.23(700)=539

           700-161=539

           539=539

           Our answer is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps❤️❤️❤️

How do you round off 639,121 to the nearest ten thousand?
maxonik [38]
You want to find the closest ten thousand that there is to 639,121.

So a ten thousand is basically anything that ends with four or more zeros.

For example:

530000 would be a ten thousand because it has four zeros at the end.

So you can see what the closest ten thousands are to 639,121 would be.

They would be:

630,000 and 640,000

Since they both have four zeros at the end.

Now you can just tell that 639,121 is closer to 640,000 because the digit in the thousands place, 9, is closer to 10 than 0.

Hope this helped :)

What is the area of the triangle?<br> 10 km<br> 10 km<br> square kilometers
MrMuchimi
The answer is 50 because the formula for the area of a triangle is base x hight x 1/2. So if we plug both the 10s into the formula you get 10x10 which = 100 then divide that by 2 and you get 50. Hope it helps :)
