Answer provided by our tutors
Let 'x' represent the number of newspapers delivered by Sue, then 'x+14' represents the number of newspapers delivered by Nancy. If each newspaper is delivered every day (no change in the number of newspapers delivered over the weekend!):
1120/7=(x+(x+14))
x=73
73+14=87
So Sue delivers 73 newspapers every day and Nancy delivers 87 newspapers every day.
