To find the number of additional followers \( f \) that LeShawn needs to reach his goal of more than 1000 followers, we can set up the inequality based on his current followers.
He currently has 250 followers and wants more than 1000. So we can express this as:
\[ 250 + f > 1000 \]
To solve this inequality for \( f \):
1. Subtract 250 from both sides:
\[ f > 1000 - 250 \]
\[ f > 750 \]
This means LeShawn needs more than 750 additional followers.
So, the correct inequality that represents this situation is:
**D. \( f + 250 > 1000 \)**
This matches our initial equation before simplifying.
