2 Jessica re the same number of books each month. Write an expression to represent the number of books Jessica reads in 2 years.

The answer is Jessica reads 24b books in 2 years where b is the number of books she reads each month.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, decide on your variable. You don't know how many books Jessica reads each month, but you know every month it is the same.

Let b equal the number of books Jessica reads each month.

Next, write a variable expression using b. In one month Jessica reads b books. In 2 months Jessica reads 2b books. The question asks for an expression that represents the total number of books Jessica reads in 2 years. There are 12 months in a year so there are 24 months in 2 years. So your expression is

24b

b.) divide by -5.
