Answer:

540

Step-by-step explanation:

Increasing by 8 1/3% is basically multiplying by 108.33...%

therefore, you get:

585=108.33333333333% * x

x=540

Let the number be x

Given that x is increased by 15% gives 161

[tex]⇒ \frac{x + 15}{100 \times x} = 161 \\ = \frac{115}{100} \times x = 161 \\⇒ x = 140[/tex]
