Abook store contains 75,972 books, divided in three sections: science, business, and math. the science section represents 1/3 of the total books. of the remaining books, 75% are business. how many books are in the math section?

The answer is 12,662 books in the math section.

Since the science section represents 1/3 of the total books, divide 75,972 by 3.

75,972 ÷ 3 = 25,324 books in the science section.

Now, subtract 25,324 science books from the total number of books.

75,972 - 25,324 = 50,648 remaining books.

Divide the remaining books by 4 and then multiply by 3.

50,648 ÷ 4 = 12,662 • 3 = 37,986 business books.

Add the science books and business books together.

25,324 + 37,986 = 63,310 science and business books.

Subtract 63,310 from 75,972.

75,972 - 63,310 = 12,662 books in the math section.
