The sum of 11 3/4 of a number less than 112 what are all the possible values of by an inequality that could be used to solve this problem X as the variable and write the inequality, so that extreme comes first where Nessus write numbers as fractions, rather than decimals, do not solve the inequality

1 answer

Let's assume the number as X.

The phrase "11 3/4 of a number less than 112" can be translated to the inequality:

11 3/4 * X < 112

Now, we can convert 11 3/4 to an improper fraction:

11 3/4 = (4*11 + 3)/4 = 47/4

So the inequality becomes:

(47/4) * X < 112

Thus, the inequality is:

(47/4)X < 112
