Question Number 104460 by Anindita last updated on 21/Jul/20

$$\mathrm{The}\mathrm{number}\mathrm{of}\mathrm{reading}\mathrm{books}\mathrm{is}1248$$$$\mathrm{in}\mathrm{a}\mathrm{library}.\mathrm{The}\mathrm{number}\mathrm{of}\mathrm{story}$$$$\mathrm{books}\mathrm{is}936.\mathrm{The}\mathrm{librarians}\mathrm{bought}$$$$\mathrm{more}\mathrm{reading}\mathrm{books}.\mathrm{Now}\frac{\mathrm{The}\mathrm{number}\mathrm{of}\mathrm{Reading}\mathrm{books}}{\mathrm{The}\mathrm{number}\mathrm{of}\mathrm{story}\mathrm{books}}$$$$=\frac{11}{5}.\mathrm{How}\mathrm{many}\mathrm{reading}\mathrm{books}\mathrm{were}$$$$\mathrm{bought}?$$

$$\frac{1248+x}{936}=\frac{3}{4}$$$$4(1248+x)=3\times 936$$$$4992+4x=2808$$$$4x=-2184$$$$x=-546$$$$\mathrm{So}\mathrm{your}\mathrm{question}\mathrm{is}\mathrm{wrong}$$$$\mathrm{If}\mathrm{ratio}\mathrm{is}\frac{4}{3}\mathrm{then}\mathrm{books}\mathrm{bought}\mathrm{is}0.$$
