Answers

Let \( x \) represent the number of books in the school library. According to the problem, the town library has 3 times as many books as the school library, and the town library has 2,676 books.

The relationship can be expressed as:

\[
3x = 2676
\]

This equation can be used to find the number of books in the school library.

So, the multiplication equation that can be used is \( 3x = 2676 \).
