The number of words of the book Jimmy reads os 21,356, and the number of words of the book Bob reads is one-and-a-half times (that is, 1.5x) as many words, so to find the number of words Bob reads, we just need to multiply the number of words of Jimmy's book by the factor of 1.5:


21356\cdot1.5=32034
