Answer 2

Answer:

• Total No. of Fiction Books = 11086 books
• Total No. of Historical Books = 5543 books
• Total No. of Poetry Books = 19832 books

the National Library has total number of books = 11086+5543+19832 = 36461 books

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

• The number of historical books is exactly half the number of fiction books.
• The number of poetry books is 14,289 more than the historical books.
• Total No. of fiction Books are 11086

To Find :

• Total No. of Fiction Books
• Total No. of History Books
• Total No. of Poetry Books

Solution :

The number of fiction books are already given which is  11086 books.

since the number of historical books = half of fiction books

                                                            = $\frac{1}{2} \ \text{x} \ {11086}$

                                                            = 5543 books

Hence  the number of historical books are 5543 books.

The number of Poetry Books = 14289 more than historical books

                                                 = 14289 + 5543

                                                 = 19832 books

Hence  the number of Poetry books are 19832 books.

So we have calculated that

• Total No. of Fiction Books = 11086 books
• Total No. of Historical Books = 5543 books
• Total No. of Poetry Books = 19832 books

Hence the National Library has total number of books = 11086+5543+19832 = 36461 books
