there were D. 1163 books left on the shelves or in circulation.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

let us count the number of books that are NOT on the shelves now.

1st step: 32 + 24 = 56

2nd step: <em>the total number of books minus the amount of books that are damaged or out:  </em>1,219 - 56 = 1163

Answer:

C. 1,163

Step-by-step explanation:

Total books = books on shelves + books lost + books out for repair

What do we know

1219 =  books on shelves + 32 + 24

1219 = books on selves + 56

Subtract 56 from each side

1219-56 = books on shelves - 56

1163 = books on shelves

Answer:

Distance problems are word problems that involve the distance an object will travel at a certain average rate for a given period of time.

The formula for distance problems is: distance = rate × time or d = r × t.

Things to watch out for:

Make sure that you change the units when necessary. For example, if the rate is given in miles per hour and the time is given in minutes then change the units appropriately.

It would be helpful to use a table to organize the information for distance problems. A table helps you to think about one number at a time instead being confused by the question.
