Answer 1

Answer: multiply 8 on all x number of books read

Step-by-step explanation:

1 is 8 because 8 × 1 is 8

2 is 16 because 8 × 2 is 16

3 is 24 because 8 × 3 is 24

4 is 32 because 8 × 4 is 32

5 is 40 because 8 × 5 is 40

6 is 48 because 8 × 6 is 48

7 is 56 because 8 × 7 is 56

8 is 64 because 8 × 8 is 64

9 is 72 because 8 × 9 is 72

10 is 80 because 8 × 10 is 80
