Lionel has at most cups of flour to bake tortillas and a loaf of bread. Lionel uses cups of flour to make the loaf of bread.
If each batch of tortillas takes cups of flour, how many batches of tortillas, x, can Lionel bake? Select the inequality that includes the maximum number of batches of tortillas Lionel can bake.
Let's represent the total cups of flour Lionel has as T and the cups of flour needed for the loaf of bread as B.
T ≤ max cups of flour
B = cups of flour for loaf of bread
cups of flour per batch of tortillas
x = number of batches of tortillas
We know that Lionel uses B cups of flour for the loaf of bread, so the remaining flour for the tortillas is T - B.
To find the maximum number of batches of tortillas Lionel can bake, we need to find the maximum number of batches of tortillas using the remaining flour, which is (T - B).
Therefore, our inequality will be:
(T - B) / = x
Or we can write it in terms of x:
x ≤ (T - B) /
So, the inequality that includes the maximum number of batches of tortillas Lionel can bake is:
x ≤ (T - B) /
