Question

Denna has 80 books in her collection now. If 60% of the books are fiction,how many of the books are nonfiction?

Answer 1

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.
