4/7 times a number minus 8.5 is no more than 11.5

Hi there! :)

4/7 times 35, minus 8.5 is no more than 11.5

The number is : 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's replace "a number" by the letter "x" because that's what we are looking for.

4/7 × x = 4/7x

4/7x MINUS 8.5 = 4/7x - 8.5

The expression "no more than" is represented by this sign: ≤

"No more than" can also be "less than or equal to".

The final inequality should look like this:

4/7x - 8.5 ≤ 11.5

Now all you need to do is solve the inequality by isolating "x":

4/7x - 8.5 ≤ 11.5

Add 8.5 to each side of the inequality → 11.5 + 8.5 = 20

4/7x ≤ 20

Divide each side of the inequality by "4/7" → 20 ÷ 4/7 = 35

x ≤ 35

There you go! I really hope this helped if there's anything just let me know! :)
