Answer:

The number of hardback books in book sale   = 58

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hardback books  = m

So, the number of paperback books = 3 ( number of Hardbacks)  - 12

                                                             = 3 m - 12

⇒the number of paperback books   = 3 m -12

Now, total number of  paperback books  = 162

⇒ (3m -12)  = 162

or, 3m = 162 + 12

or, 3m  = 174     ⇒  m = 174 / 3

or, m = 58

Hence, the number of hardback books  = 58
