jasmine wants to organize her books in order of the most number of pages to the least number of pages jasmine's longest book has 396 pages and her shortest book has one-fourth as many pages as the longest if the book in the middle of her shelf has three times the number of pages of the shortest book how many pages does the middle book have? SHOW ALL WORK pls

Answer 1

Longest book: 396 Shortest book: 396/4 or 99 Middle book:3*99 so 297

Answer 2

 the numbers of pages of the longest book equals 396
the numbers of the pages of  the shortest book equals one fourth of the longests , so it will be 396/4 and that equals 99
we want the numbers of the pages of the middle book , and it equals the number of the page of he shortest book multiple by 3 and the result is 99.3 =297
