The average number of novels on historical, thriller and
fantasy in a library is 40, and the average number of novels on historical and fantasy is 30. If the number novels on fantasy is 10% less than the number of novels on thriller, then what is the number of novels on historical in the library?Solution
Let the number of novels on historical, thriller and fantasy be x, y and z respectively. Given, (x + y + z)/3 = 40 => x + y + z = 120 ….. (1) And, (x + z)/2 = 30 => x + z = 60 ….. (2) From equation 1 and 2 Number of novels on thriller = y = 60 Number of novels on fantasy = 0.90 × 60 = 54 Therefore, number of novels on historical = 120 – (60 + 54) = 6
