Multiplication equation to find how many books she needs to read to get 50 ponits

Let the number of books be ‘n’

Let the number of points be ‘p’

For a multiplication equation, let’s introduce the constant, k

Therefore, n = k·p

1 book = 5 points

When n = 1, p = 5

n = k·p

1 = k·5

1 = 5k

5k = 1

Divide both sides of the equation by 5

5k/5 = 1/5

k = 1/5

Since n = k·p

The constant, k = 1/5

n = (1/5)p

To solve for how many books she needs to read to get to 50 points

Given,

Mei has earned 30 points,

She needs to get to 50 points

Points deficient = 50 points – 30 points

= 20 points

n = (1/5)p

p = 20

Find n

n = (1/5)p

n = (1/5) * 20

n = 20/5

n = 4

Therefore, Given that Mae already has 30 points, she needs to read 4 books to get to 50 points
