Brad has agreed to take over his brother's
paper route while his brother is out of town.
Brad's mother drives while Brad throws the
papers. Out of a total route of 320 papers,
Brad missed four times the number of front
door areas as he hit. Brad begins to figure
out the number of papers that landed at the
front door like this:
4(X) + X = 320 papers
Where X equals the number of papers that
landed at the front door.
- Finish the problem where Brad started and
find how many papers actually landed at the
front door.
