    Answer:

    Non fiction : Total number of books

    = 14 : 42

    = 1:3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total number of books = 42 books

    Non fiction books = 14 books

    The ratio of the number of non-fiction books to the total number of books is :

    Non fiction : Total number of books

    = 14 : 42

    Further simplified

    = 1:3
