let number of Chinese books be 3x
let the number of English books be 5x
number of Malay books = (5/9)(3x) = (5/3)x
Malay books : English books
= (5/3)x : 5x
= 5x : 15x
= 5 : 15
= 1 : 3
let the number of English books be 5x
number of Malay books = (5/9)(3x) = (5/3)x
Malay books : English books
= (5/3)x : 5x
= 5x : 15x
= 5 : 15
= 1 : 3
