Question

24% of the books on David's shelf are mysteries. There are 36 mysteries on the shelf.
Choose the expressions that complete each step involved in setting up and solving the proportion that represents the situation.

Answer 1

No expressions are given. Not sure of the question. Do they want to know how many total books are on the shelf?

Total books:

Number of portion ÷ %= total books

T= total books

T= 36 ÷ 24%
T= 36 ÷ 0.24
T= 150 total books

Not sure this helps, but hope it did!!
