Answer:

33

Explanation:

Landon is building new book shelves for his bookstore's new mystery section

Each of the shelf can hold 37 books

There are 1221 mystery books

Therefore the number of shelves that Landon will need to build can be calculated as follows

= 1221/37

= 33

Hence Landon needs to build 33 shelves
