Question

A number c divided by 7 is at most -28

Answer 1

c ≤ -196

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression, a number c divided by 7 is at most -28​ can be written as:

`(c)/(7)\leq-28`

It is the same to say that a c divided by 7 is less than or equal to -28.

So, we can solve for c by multiplying both sides of the inequality by 7 as:

`\begin{gathered} (c)/(7)\cdot7\leq-28\cdot7 \\ c\leq-196 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, c can be at most -196.
