In september, john read a total of p pages. in october, he read twice as many pages than he read in september, and in november, he read triple the number of pages that he read in october. in december, john read 120 pages. wrote an expression that shows, in terms of p, the number of pages that john read in plz i will give you 100 points

Ok so to start let's put everything we know in some expressions

Words: In September, John read a total of p pages.

September: p

Words:  In October, he read twice as many pages than he read in September

October: 2p

Words:  November, he read triple the number of pages that he read in October

November: 3 x October

Then, we know what October is (2p), so we can substitute it into the third expression to get 3 x 2p or 6p. In November, John read 6p pages, or 6 times as many as he read in September.

Note: The fact that he read 120 pages in December is just in there to distract you. It's never connected to any of the other months, and since our equation can be in terms of p we don't need to know the actual number of pages

If I can help with anything else just let me know :)
