    The original number is x = 66.19

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let 'x' be the number

    Given data a number is decreased by 19% the result is 66

    x - 19% = 66

    x-0.19 = 66

    Adding '0.19' on both sides, we get

    x - 0.19 + 0.19 = 66 + 0.19

    x = 66.19

    The original number is x = 66.19
