Whether online or in print, newspapers give you in-depth coverage of current events. Radio can give you the sounds as it tells you the story; television can give you the images and videos as it tells you the story. But both of these media, while important, are restricted by time-- the typical radio or TV news story is often only a minute long, or even less (a typical network newscast has about 19 minutes of news and the rest is commercials), while newspapers have the ability to devote a page or more to the story, bringing in various perspectives and details you might not find elsewhere. Newspapers can provide images through the use of photographs, and online newspapers now can provide videos too, but it's the in-depth reporting that makes newspaper valuable.

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.

Dividing this by the number of students who read each newspaper (60 students) gives 1500 newspapers / 60 students = 25 newspapers in total.
