Solve 2/3x less than or equal to 5.

1 answer

To solve 2/3x ≤ 5, we need to isolate x on one side of the inequality sign.

First, let's multiply both sides of the inequality by 3 (the denominator of 2/3) to get rid of the fraction:

3 * (2/3x) ≤ 3 * 5

This simplifies to:

2x ≤ 15

Now, divide both sides of the inequality by 2 to solve for x:

2x/2 ≤ 15/2

The inequality becomes:

x ≤ 7.5

Therefore, the solution to 2/3x ≤ 5 is x ≤ 7.5.
