Answer:

The hardcover without a dust jacket.

Step-by-step Step-by-step explanation

0.2 is 20%, so if you add that to the 64% you can see what the other percentage of books are. 64%+ 20% = 84. So if you subtract 84 from 100 that equals 16, so the other book percentage is 16%, which makes the hardcovers without a dust jacket the least number of books Patrick has.
