Question

The ratio of general books to textbook in a library is 3 ratio 1 if the total number of general books is 1800 then find the total number of books in the library

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the Total book    =  y

The ratio of general books to textbook = 3:1 = (3 + 1)

         general book  =  1800

             (3/4) x y       = 1800

                         y      = 1800 x (4/3)

                         y      = 2400

therefore total book = 2400

text book                   = 2400- 1800 = 600

Answer 2

Answer:

2400

Step-by-step explanation:

LET THE GENERAL BOOK=3x

TEXTBOOK=1x

HERE 3x=1800

x=1800÷3

x=600

TOTAL NUMBER OF BOOK

GENERAL BOOK +TEXT BOOK

=1800+600

=2400
