Step-by-step explanation:
Total no. of books = 12000
No. of books sold in the first week = 15% of 12000 = 1800
No. of books sold in seconds week = 15% of 1800 = 1530
Therefore no. of books left out in the book store = 12000 - (1800 + 1530) = 12000 - 3330 = 8670

sorry, the past answer is wrong. It will be 8670, not 8780.

Answer:
the number of weeks sold in the second week is 1530 books and the number of left out book is no of book sold in first week + the no of books in second week and subtract it from 12000 and the answer comes out to be 8670 books..
