192

Explanation:

Given :Wendy is arranging books on the bookshelves in the school library. The total number of books she arranges is given by the equation b = 12r, where b is the total number of books and r is the number of rows. Each row contains the same number of books.

To Find: If Wendy arranged 16 rows, she arranged a total of ___ books.

Solution:

Since we are given an expression:

b = 12r

where b = total no. of books she arranged

r denotes the number of rows

Since we are asked If Wendy arranged 16 rows, she arranged how many books

So, put r = 16 in equation

Thus b = 12*16

b = 192

Thus she arranged 192 books in 16 rows
