Answer:I think Jordan is this a trick question
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The number of
Fiction books = x = 2400 fiction books
Non fiction books = y = non fiction books
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of
Fiction books = x
Non fiction books = y
The libary has 4,000 books in total.
Hence: x + y = 4000........ Equation 1
The number of fiction books in a libary is %150 of the number of non-fiction books.
x = 150% of y
x = 150/100 × y
x = 1.5y
We substitute 1.5y for x in Equation 1
x + y = 4000
1.5y + y = 4000
2.5y = 4000
y = 4000/2.5
y = 1600 non fiction books
Solving for x
x = 1.5y
x = 1.5 × 1600
x = 2400 fiction books.
Therefore,
The number of
Fiction books = x = 2400 fiction books
Non fiction books = y = non fiction books
