Given is the number of science fiction books = 48

Let the number of mystery books be = x

Let the number of biographies be = y

Ratio of the number of mystery books to the number of science fiction books is 4:3 so \frac{4}{3}= \frac{x}{48}

=3x=48\times4

x=64

Ratio of the number of science fiction books to the number of biographies is 4:5 so \frac{4}{5}=\frac{48}{y}

=4y=5\times48

y=60

Hence there are 48 science fiction books, 64 mystery books and 60 biographies.

So total number of books are = 48+64+60=172

ehidna [41]

Answer:

∴ 2 \frac{41}{50}  = 282 %

Step-by-step explanation:

2 \frac{41}{50}

= [( 2 × 50) + 41] ÷ 50

=  ( 100 + 41) ÷ 50

= \frac{141}{50}

=( \frac{141 }{50} ) × \frac{2}{2}

= \frac{282}{100}

= 282 %

∴ 2 \frac{41}{50}  = 282 %
