517284 books have been sold to date.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Copies sold in first month = 41900
This represents 8.1% of copies sold to date.
Let,
x be the number of copies that have been sold to date.
8.1% of x = 41900
Dividing both sides by 0.081
Rounding off to nearest whole number
x = 517284
517284 books have been sold to date.
