Question

you want to have enough flour to divide into 5 piles. each pile must measure more than 1.5 cups the inequality you write is f/5 > 1.5. solve the inequality.

Answer 1

To solve the inequality f/5 > 1.5, we need to isolate f by multiplying both sides of the inequality by 5:

f/5 > 1.5
f > 1.5 * 5
f > 7.5

Therefore, the amount of flour (f) must be greater than 7.5 cups in order to be divided into 5 piles, each measuring more than 1.5 cups.
