The sum of 11 and three-fourths of a number is less than 112. What are all the possible values of the number? Write an inequality that could be used to solve this problem. Use the letter I as the variable, and write the inequality so that the a term comes first. Where necessary, write numbers as fractions (rather than decimals). Do not solve the inequality.
To write an inequality to represent the problem, let's use the variable I for the number. We are told that "The sum of 11 and three-fourths of a number is less than 112." This can be written as:
11 + (3/4)I < 112
Which inequality could be used to solve this problem.
