E.432

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Total number of books=8

Novels= $\frac{3}{8}\times 8=3$

Study guides=25% of 8= $\frac{25}{100}\times 8=2$

Textbooks=8-(3+2)=3

We have to find the possible number of arrangements of books .

Number of ways in which novels can be arranged=3! $=3\times 2\times 1=6$

Using formula: $n!=n(n-1)(n-2)(n-3)....2\times 1$

Number of ways in which study guides can be arranged=2!= $2\times 1=2$

Number of ways in which textbooks can be arranged= $3!=3\times 2\times 1=6$

Number of category of books=3

Therefore, number of ways in which 3 types of books can be arranged=3!=6

Total possible number of arrangement of books= $6\times 2\times 6\times 6=432$

Option E is true
