Answer:

4 shelves

Step-by-step explanation:

First you will have to subtract the one she keeps by her bed.

27 - 1 = 26 to be put on a shelf.

To find the least number of shelves needed, you will divided the total left by eight:

26 ÷ 8 = 3.25

She can fill 3 shelves completely and still have books left over. So she needs at least 4 shelves!

Love your profile pic btw! :)
27-1= 26 (the one book beside her bed)
26/8= 3.25, but there isn’t .25 of a shelf, so she needs 4 shelves to fit all of her books
