Step 1
We first need to find out the total amount of empty space in both these shelves together.
Step 2

Ruth has a

full shelf. So, we need to figure out what fraction is empty.

We can calculate that as 1 -

Step 3
Similarly Carol has 1 -

fraction of her shelf empty.

Step 4
Now we need to add these two together to find out the total fraction empty in these two
shelves together.

Step 5
Now we are also told that if we distribute 70 among Ruth and Carol then the shelves will be
filled.
So the fraction

7
12

of the shelves can be filled using 70 books.

Step 6
So we see that the total number of books that can be held in a shelf is
70

7
12

= 120.

So each shelf can hold 120 books.

Step 7
We also know Carol has
