The question is probably wrong..
subham964:
the question is not wrong you did read it thoroly
It’s given story book:school book is 5:2
So that means story books are more
But in your answer school books are more
yes
why it can't be
It means 5/2 = 4/x
So 5x = 8
So x = 8/5
But books can’t be in fractions
So 5x = 8
So x = 8/5
But books can’t be in fractions
