Final answer:

To find out how many memberships Supergym sold this year, multiply the number of memberships they sold last year by the percentage decrease.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many memberships Supergym sold this year, we need to multiply the number of memberships they sold last year by the percentage decrease.

To do this, we first convert the percentage decrease from 14% to decimal form by dividing it by 100: 14/100 = 0.14.

Then, we multiply the decimal form of the percentage decrease by the number of memberships sold last year: 0.14 x 4,050 = 567.

Therefore, Supergym sold 567 memberships this year.
