Answer:
200 resource books
800 fiction books
400 nonfiction books
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define x as the amount of resource books that are in the library. As he has four times as many fiction books as resource books, that means he has 4*x fiction books.
We also know he has half as many nonfiction books as fiction books, that is 1/2*4*x = 2*x nonfiction books.
We just need to find out the value of x.
We know there are 1,400 books in total and there are just 3 types of books. Therefore, if we sum all of them, we get the 1,400.
Written in math language, that is
x + 4x + 2x = 1,400
7x = 1,400
We divide by 7 on both sides and we get
7/7x = 1,400/7
x = 200
Now we replace the x with 200 to know how many books he has of each type:
Resource books = x = 200
Fiction books = 4*x = 4*200 = 800
Nonfiction books = 2*x = 2*200 = 400
Therefore, there are 200 resource books, 800 fiction books and 400 nonfiction books in the library.

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Determine the median</u>
The median of a set is the middle of the set. In this instance, we have 6 numbers so we don't have a number directly in the set representing the median. Instead, we need to find the average or middle between the 3rd and 4th number. So we take 2.7 and 2.8, add them together to get 5.5 and then we divide by 2 to get 2.75 which is our median.
