Answer 2

Answer:

Wednesday

Step-by-step explanation:

On Sunday, total number of books are 480

Half of them gets sold by the end of the day=480/2=240

And 16 are added at the end of the day=240+16=256

On Monday, total number of books are 256

Half of them gets sold by the end of the day=256/2=128

And 16 are added at the end of the day=128+16=144

On Tuesday, total number of books are 144

Half of them gets sold by the end of the day=144/2=72

And 16 are added at the end of the day=72+16=88

On Wednesday,total number of books are 88

Half of them gets sold by the end of the day=88/2=44

Therefore; On Wednesday the warning will be given.
