Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

In a fraction, the <em>greater the numerator, the greater the number will be</em>.

Knowing that, since <em>all of the numbers have the same denominator</em>, we just need to find the number with the smallest numerator.

That is 5/12, since <em>5 < 6 < 9 < 10</em>.

Zielflug [23.3K]

There approximately 7133 books in the library;

Data;

Let the number of total books = x
Number of fictional books = 3/4x

<h3>Word Problem</h3>

To solve this problem, we simply need to use an equation to explain the word problem into mathematical statements.

Let the total number of books be represented by x

The number of fictional books = 3/4x

After 592 fictional books were donated;

$\frac{3x}{4} + 592 = \frac{5}{6}x$

Let collect like terms and solve

$\frac{3x}{4} +592 = \frac{5}{6} x\\\frac{5}{6}x - \frac{3x}{4} = 592\\ 0.083x=592\\x = 592/0.083\\x = 7132.53$

There approximately 7133 books in the library;
