Question

In a school library, 40% of the books are in Nepali language, 40% of the remaining books are in English and the remaining books are in regional languages. If the number of books in English language is 4800, find the total number of books in the library,​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Solution,

Let the total number of books be x, then

Books in English language=4800

40% of x=4800

40/100×x=4800

40x/100=4800

40x=4800×100

40x=480000

x=480000/40

x=12000

So the total number of books in the library is 12000.
