    Paolo read more nonfiction books

    Paolo read two nonfiction book more than Kamesh

    Step-by-step explanation:

    we know that

    Kamesh read 12 nonfiction books

    35%=35/100=0.35

    To find out the number of nonfiction books that Paolo read, multiply the total books by the percent in decimal form

    so

    40 (0.35) = 14

    Find the difference

    14-12=2

    therefore

    Paolo read more nonfiction books

    Paolo read two nonfiction book more than Kamesh
