Question

Determine whether the inequality is true or false.
16 > 4 + 2

Answer 1

To determine whether the inequality \( 16 > 4 + 2 \) is true or false, we first need to evaluate the expression on the right side of the inequality.

Calculate \( 4 + 2 \):
\[
4 + 2 = 6
\]

Now we compare 16 to 6:
\[
16 > 6
\]

Since 16 is indeed greater than 6, the inequality \( 16 > 4 + 2 \) is true.

Therefore, the answer is **true**.
