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:

Answer:

1 / 216

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember, when you divide fractions you have to multiply by the reciprocal

1/6 ÷ 6/1 ÷ 6/1

1st step:  1/6 ÷ 6/1  =  1/6 · 1/6  =   1/36

2nd step:  1/36 ÷ 6/1  = 1/36 · 1/6  = 1 /216

We are given:

-14

To simplify this inequality, we can add 2 to all three sides. When we do that, we are left with:

-12

After we simplify that, we can divide all sides by -6. Here is what we get:

\frac{-12}{-6}

When you simplify, your final answer will be:

2>x\geq-4
