If recyclers pay $5 a ton for newspapers, how many tons of newspaper would your school have to recycle to earn $75?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If they are getting 5$ per ton then you have \[ X (tonn) * 5 ($/tonn) = 75 ($) \] So you just need to solve for X by dividing 75 by 5.

So the answer is 15 tons?

15 tons are needed
