Mark has 312 books in his bookcases. He has 11 times as many fiction as nonfiction books. How many fiction books does Mark have?

1 answer:

6 0

11x represents the fiction
X represents the nonfiction book

11x+x=312
12x=312
Divide both by 12
X=26

To find the fiction you have to do 11 times 26

11•26=286

To check the answer you add 286 and 26

If it adds up to 312 the answer is correct
