Answer 1

To determine how many nights it will take Niall to finish the book, we first need to find out how many pages he has left to read.

1. Total pages in the book: 520 pages
2. Pages already read: 100 pages
3. Pages left to read: 520 - 100 = 420 pages

Next, we divide the number of pages left by the number of pages he plans to read per night:

4. Pages per night: 60 pages
5. Nights needed to finish: 420 pages ÷ 60 pages/night = 7 nights

Therefore, it will take Niall 7 nights to finish the book.
