<PRE><B>Question 1206314</B>
Trey needs to read 5 novels each month. Let N be the number of novels Trey needs to read in M months. Write an equation relating N to M. Then use this equation to find the number of novels Trey needs to read in 15 months.

5 novels in 1 month

N novels in M months

the number of novels (N)  he  nhas to read is equal to 5 times the number of months 

N=5M

M=15
N=5*15=75 NOVELS
