Mason delivers 30 newspapers 20 days a month. Write and solve an equation to find n, the number of newspapers Mason delivers a month.

Answer 1

To find the total number of newspapers Mason delivers in a month, we can set up the following equation:

Let \( n \) be the total number of newspapers delivered in a month.

Mason delivers 30 newspapers each day for 20 days. Therefore, we can express this as:

\[ n = 30 \text{ newspapers/day} \times 20 \text{ days} \]

Now, let's calculate \( n \):

\[ n = 30 \times 20 \]

\[ n = 600 \]

Thus, the total number of newspapers Mason delivers in a month is \( \boxed{600} \).
