Answer:

A) 5p = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Chris and Paul both made putts totaling 60 and Chris made '4 times as many as Paul', setting up an equation with one variable makes the most sense:

p = number of putts for Paul

4p = number of putts for Chris

4p + p = 60

Combine like terms: 5p = 60

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number of Paul's putts. Then the number of Chris's putts is 4n. Together these two numbers are n+4n=5n that is 60 putts.

Hence,

n + 4n = 60

or

5n = 60.
