Final answer:

When writing the numbers from 1 to 30, the number 1 appears a total of 12 times, counting every instance in the tens and units places throughout the sequence.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking how many times the number 1 appears when Joshua writes down the numbers from 1 to 30. To find the answer, we list the numbers and count how many times '1' appears:

  • The number 1 appears once in the numbers 1, 10, and 20.
  • It appears twice in the number 11.
  • And once in 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19.

Adding these up, we see that the number 1 appears 12 times:

  • 1 (for the number 1)
  • 1 (for the number 10)
  • 2 (for the number 11)
  • 1 each for numbers 12 through 19 (8 times)
  • 1 (for the number 20)

Thus, the correct answer is d. 12.
