![6*10^{5}/tex] books.Step-by-step explanation:Having books on both sides, and each book being 25 centimeters (there is 100 cm in a meter, so 25 cm=0.25 m) deep, shelves must be around 50 cm (or 0.5 m) wide.If corridors must be 1,5 m wide, every two linear meters (perpendicular to corridors and shelves) of floor space there is 1.5 m of corridors and 0.5 m of shelves and that sequence repeats itself, i.e. there is 75% (1.5 of every 2 meters) of space occupied by corridors and 25% (0.5 of every 2 meters) occupied by shelves, that is:[tex]Floor space_{shelves}=Total floor space*proportion of shelves=3500m^{2} *0.25=875m^{2}](/tpl/images/0227/6474/d479e.png)
