To solve the inequality 5x/9 < 8, we need to isolate x.
First, we can multiply both sides by 9 to get rid of the fraction:
5x < 8 * 9
5x < 72
Next, we can divide both sides by 5 to solve for x:
x < 72/5
x < 14.4
To write this as a mixed number, we can divide 72 by 5 to get the whole number part and the remainder:
72 ÷ 5 = 14 remainder 2
Therefore, x can be written as the mixed number 14 2/5.
