Respuesta :

Answer:

984

Step-by-step explanation:

DVDs comprises 31.3% of total. And we also know that there are 308 DVD. Thus, we can say:

308 is 31.3% of total

We can let total be x, thus we can write an equation as:

308 = 0.313x

Solving for x:

[tex]308 = 0.313x\\x=\frac{308}{0.313}\\x=984.02[/tex]

We can round and say there are 984 total movies
