Answer:

55

Step-by-step explanation:

first you take away 80 from 300

300-80=220

then you divide 220 by the number of days left which would be 4 because 5-1=4

220/4=55

so your answer is 55

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After the first day, 4 days will be left for Maria to complete the book.

let x represent the total number of pages of the book

no of pages read each day  = (x-80)/4

p = (300-80)/4

p = 220/4 = 105 pages
