Answer:

27%

Explanation:

The total books sold were 182 and the amount of books sold that were nonfiction hardcover were 49 as represented in the frequency table.

To find the percentage we must divide the nonfiction hardcover by the total books.

49/182≈0.269 or 0.27

Multiply the decimal by a 100 to change it into a percentage, so our answer is 27%.
