Which sentence can represent the inequality 2.4 (6.2 minus x) greater-than negative 4.5? Two and four tenths times six and two tenths minus a number is larger than negative four and five tenths.
Two and four tenths multiplied by the difference of six and two tenths and a number is more than negative four and five tenths.
The difference of six and two tenths and a number multiplied by two and four tenths is not less than negative four and five tenths.
The product of six and two tenths minus a number and two and four tenths is at minimum negative four and five tenths.

Choice B

Two and four tenths multiplied by the difference of six and two tenths and a number is more than negative four and five tenths.

Explanation:

2.4 = 2 + 0.4

2.4 = 2 and 4/10

2.4 = 2 and 4 tenths

2.4 = two and four tenths

Through similar reasoning,

6.2 = six and two tenths

And also,

-4.5 = negative four and five tenths

Notice how 6.2 - x translates into "difference of six and two tenths and a number"

We then multiply that by 2.4, aka two and four tenths.

So that's how we get the phrasing "Two and four tenths multiplied by the difference of six and two tenths and a number"

All of this is greater than -4.5 aka negative four and five tenths.

This points us to Choice B as the final answer.
