Given : Expression a number g is multiplied by -8 is at least
(1)/(4) .

To find : What is the number ?

Solution :

g is multiplied by -8 i.e.
-8g

At least is
$\geq$

A number g is multiplied by -8 is at least
(1)/(4) .

$-8g\geq (1)/(4)$

Divide both side by 8,

$-(8g)/(8)\geq (1)/(4* 8)$

$-g\geq (1)/(32)$

Multiply both side by -1,

$g\leq -(1)/(32)$

Therefore, the number is
$g\leq -(1)/(32)$
