A bookstore had 96 copies of a magazine. Yesterday, it sold 1/3 of them. Today, it sold 1/8 of what remained. How many copies does the bookstore have left?

The total number of magazine copies that the bookstore has is 96.

On the first day, the bookstore sold 1/3 copies ofmagazine among the total of 96.

Then the number of magazines sold on the yesterday = 96 * (1/3)

= 32

Number of magazines left in the bookstore now = 96 - 32

= 64

So the bookstore sold 23 magazines on the yesterday.

Number of magazines sold by the bookstore today is 1/8 of the total magazines left.

Then the number of magazines sold today by the bookstore = 64 * (1/8)

= 8

Then the number of copies that the bookstore has left = 64 - 8

= 56
