    Step-by-step explanation:

    8 times of a story books

    And there are 441 of both the magazine and story books

    Let the magazine be x

    And the story books be 8 times of x which means 8x

    8x+x=441

    9x=441

    Divide both sides by 9

    x=49

    So there 49 magazines

    To determine for storybooks

    49*8=392

    Therefore the number of storybooks is 392

    There are 392 storybooks.

    There are 49 magazines.

    There are 343 more storybooks than magazines are there in the library.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    s = number of storybooks

    m = number of magazines

    The library has 441 storybooks and magazines altogether.

    s + m = 441

    There are 8 times as many storybooks as magazines.

    s = 8m

    How many more storybooks than magazines are there in the library?

    Substitute s = 8m into the original equation to find m.

    s + m = 441

    8m + m = 441

    9m = 441

    m = 441/9

    m = 49

    Substitute m = 49 into the original equation to find s.

    s + m = 441

    s + 49 = 441

    s = 441 - 49

    s = 392

    s - m = 392 - 49 = 343
