Jose's school has 426 students. his principal has promised the student council that their idea will be carried out if they can get at least 25% of the students population to sign a petition. so far 82 students have signed the petition. jose used the following steps to write an inequality that can be used to determine the number of students signatures still needed:

X: number of students
 We can write the following inequality to solve this problem.
 (x + 82) / (426)> = 0.25
 Rewriting
 (x + 82)> = 0.25 (426)
 Jose's Error is in step number 4.
 Jose needs at least 25% of students to sign.
 According to Jose, (step 4) he is writing that he needs maximum 25% of the signatures (= <).
 Answer
 Error in step 4
 Correct (x + 82)> = 0.25 (426)
