Let the number be x:
(x - 20% of x) + 14% of x = 593
(x - 20x/100) + 14x/100 = 593
(100x - 20x/100) + 14x/100 = 593
80x/100 + 14x/100 = 593
94x/100 = 593
94x = 593 * 100
94x = 59300
x = 59300 / 94
x = 630.85
hence, the number is 630.85
(x - 20% of x) + 14% of x = 593
(x - 20x/100) + 14x/100 = 593
(100x - 20x/100) + 14x/100 = 593
80x/100 + 14x/100 = 593
94x/100 = 593
94x = 593 * 100
94x = 59300
x = 59300 / 94
x = 630.85
hence, the number is 630.85
