The lunch special at Jimmy John’s costs $5.60. The math club has $50.40 in its treasury. How many lunch specials can the club buy? Write and solve an inequality. Show your work.

Question

i know that regularly you would just divide 50.40 by 5.60 but to display it as an inequality would the proper formula be.
5.60≤50.40
5.60/5.60≤50.40/5.60
=?

Answer 1

Clearly we don't know how many lunch specials we can buy
Let that number be n
So the cost of our n lunches would be 5.6n

Wouldn't 5.6n ≤ 60 ???
there is your inequality, I will let you solve it

You are showing just a bunch of numbers that happen to show up in your question

Answer 2

5.6x =< 50.40.
