Question

Hi, i am a bit confused about a sentence. Could you pls help me whether it is true or not?

Simply, i want to know remaning amount that i have to send at the end of april.
The question was : after 200 books delivery, how many books will remain that i sould send until end of this month?

We can't help you because we don't know the total number of books or the agreement details.  Please explain more.

Firstly, i want to thank you

The total books that i have to send until end of the April are about 900. I don't know the exact number because the buyer said that he wanted to buy around 900 books. I have sent 712 books so far, which included last 200 books delivery. So, i wonder the exact number of books which the buyer wants. Therefore, how can i ask the number of remaining books that the buyer wants? if i ask like this, ''How many books will remain that i have to send until end of the April? , will it be true?

Btw, i know i can ask it another way with same meaning, but i wonder whether the questining structure is ture or not grammatically and meaningly.

Ah, I see. First, the word your want is 'correct', not 'true'. No, it is not correct. I suggest:

How many books do I still have to send before the end of the April?
