The number of newspapers is calculated by dividing the total number of newspapers read by students by the number of times each newspaper is read. In this case, with 300 students reading 5 newspapers each, the total number of newspapers read is 300 students * 5 newspapers = 1500 newspapers. Dividing this by the number of students who read each newspaper (60 students) gives 1500 newspapers / 60 students = 25 newspapers in total.
