Took me a minute to think.
Form ratios.
x, the small triangle, forms a ratio with 6, the big triangle.
The part of the side that is equal(with the dash) that is part of the small triangle is equal to 6-x, the big triangle.
Yes, you can cross-multiply here!
<em>Now,</em><em> </em>cross multiply.
P.S. Use distributive property.
36-6x = 8x
Add 6x on both sides.
36=14x
Divide by 14 on both sides.
x =

Given that total number of books in the book store = 75972
Given that total number of books in science section = rd of total books =
= 25324
Then remaining number of books = 75972 - 25324 = 50648
Given that 75% of the remaining books are in business section = 75% of 50648 = 0.75*50648 = 37986
Then number of books in the math section = 50648 - 37986 = 12662
Hence final answer is 12662 books in the math section.
