Answer 2

He needs to build 38 shelves

Explanation:

The number of books that can be accommodated in one shelf = 34

Total number of books in the book store = 1265

Dividing the total number of books by number of books per shelf will yield the total number of shelves needed, i.e

`\text{Total number of shelves}=\frac{\text{Total number of books}}{\text{Books per shelf}}`

Putting the values,

`\text{Total number of shelves}=(1265)/(34)=37.21`

As the number of shelves can not be in fraction, so total number of shelves needed will be 38.
