Given that Nicholas has a 115 fantasy and science fiction books which is 46% of his collection.

Now we have to find what is total number of books in his collection.

Let number of books in Nicholas collection = x

then number of fantasy and science fiction books = 46% of x = 0.46x


We already know that he has 115 fantasy and science fiction books, so both values will be equal and give equation:

0.46x=115

now we can solve this equation to find the answer.

x=\frac{115}{0.46}

x= 250

Hence final answer is:

Nicholas has 250 books in his collection.

Answer:

Sales\ Price = \$9.60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price = \$24.00

Discount = 60\%

Required

Determine the sales price

First, we calculate the discount price

Discount\ Price = Price * Discount

Discount\ Price = \$24.00 * 60\%

Discount\ Price = \$14.4

The sales price is then calculated by subtracting the discount price from the original price of the item

Sales\ Price = Price - Discount\ Price

Sales\ Price = \$24.00 - \$14.40

Sales\ Price = \$9.60
