This problem, we have to write an equation and solve for it.
00:04
And it is said that three -fourths of all of the books in a school library are nonfiction.
00:09
There are 360 non -fiction books.
00:11
So how many books are in the school library altogether? so let us assume that the number of books in the school library altogether is x.
00:21
We want to find x.
00:22
Now, for that we will write an equation.
00:24
So it is said that three -fourths of all the books in a school library are non -fiction.
00:28
So that means that three -fourths of all of the school books, that's x, this will be equal to the total number of non -fiction books.
00:37
And it is said that there are 360 non -fiction books.
00:41
And whenever we have of, we actually have multiplication.
00:45
So 3 over 4 times x is equal to 360.
00:49
This will be our required equation...
