A bookstore has 60 books about math this is 0.05% of the total number of books on the shelves how many books are there in the bookstore that are not about math

119,940 books are not about math.

What I did:

60x2000=120,000

120,000-60=119,940

119940

Step-by-step explanation:

.05 % are about math

b = books

b *.05% = 60

Change to decimal form

b *.0005 = 60

Divide each side by. 0005

b = 60/.0005

b = 120000 books in the store

we want the ones not about math

120000-60

119940
