Question

Shayla is having a picnic and wants to buy enough hamburgers so that each guest can have one. If she is planning on having 52 guests, how many packages of 8 hamburgers will she need to buy? Write and solve an inequality.

Answer 1

6 ≤ x ≤ 7

Explanation:

Dividing 52 by 8 gives you a decimal between 6 and 7. Since you can only but hamburgers in packages of 8, the inequality is 6 ≤ x ≤7 with x being the number of hamburger bags.
