Answer 1

To solve the inequality, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the inequality sign.

1/3n + 4.6 ≤ 39.1

First, subtract 4.6 from both sides:

1/3n ≤ 34.5

Next, multiply both sides by 3 to eliminate the fraction:

n ≤ 103.5

Therefore, the possible values of the number are all real numbers less than or equal to 103.5.
