20 books remains in Shane's book collection.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of books in Shane's rare book collection = 40

He donates his books to the national library = 15% of 40

                                                                          = 0.15 × 40

                                                                          = 6

He sells the number of books to a dealer = \frac{1}{4}\times 40

                                                                     = 10

He sells the number of books on eBay = 4

Remaining books = 40 -(6 + 10 + 4)

                             = 40 - 20

                             = 20

20 books remains in Shane's book collection.
