Fred had 264 books in his personal library. He donated 2/11 of these books to the public library. How many books did he donate?

Sagot :

You need to know how much 2/11 of 264 is. to do this, you must multiply 264 by 2/11 =  528/11, which gives you 48. This is the total number of books that were donated to the library (aka 2/11 of Fred's personal library).
Hope that helps
