Answer:

36 DVDs

Explanation:

To find out how many of the DVDs are Korean dramas, we can start by calculating 25% of the total number of DVDs.

25% of 48 DVDs can be calculated as follows:

25% (or 0.25 as a decimal) × 48 DVDs

= 0.25 × 48

= 12 DVDs

So, 25% of the DVDs are Chinese Dramas, which is 12 DVDs.

To find out how many Korean dramas are, we can subtract the number of Chinese dramas from the total:

Total DVDs = Chinese Dramas + Korean Dramas

48 DVDs = 12 DVDs + Korean Dramas

Korean Dramas = 48 DVDs - 12 DVDs

Korean Dramas = 36 DVDs

Therefore, there are 36 Korean dramas on the shelf.
