Answer:

32 books are none fiction.

Step-by-step explanation:

If %60 of her books are fiction that means that 40% are nonfiction (since in total there are 100% books and 60% are fiction which means that the rest is non-fiction). In order to find 40%, we just multiply the total amount of books by 0.4, and so we get...

80 x 0.4 = 32

Therefore 32 books are none fiction.

How do you calculate the common difference?

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

<h3> second term minus first term </h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Difference is a result of subtracting (not dividing!)

To calculate difference between two terms we have to subtract the previous from the next:

$d=a_2-a_1=a_3-a_2=a_4-a_3=...=a_n-a_{n-1}$
