At the end of the year, a library reported 32 books lost or stolen and 24 books were sent out for repair. if the library originally had 1,219 books, how many were left on the shelves or in circulation?
a. 1,219
b. 1,187
c. 1,163
d. 1,275

C. 1,163

Step-by-step explanation:

Total books = books on shelves + books lost + books out for repair

What do we know

1219 =  books on shelves + 32 + 24

1219 = books on selves + 56

Subtract 56 from each side

1219-56 = books on shelves - 56

1163 = books on shelves
