When a number is decreased by 3.5%, the result is 91 what is the original number to the nearest tenth

The number is 94.3 (to the nearest tenth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number =x

When x is decreased by 3.5%, we have:

(100% of x)-(3.5% of x)=(100-3.5)% of x =96.5% of x

When a number is decreased by 3.5%, the result is 91.

Therefore:

96.5% of x = 91

Converting percentage to decimal: 96.5%=0.965

0.965x = 91

Divide both sides by 0.965

x=94.3

The number is 94.3 (to the nearest tenth)
