Question
Write an inequality to represent the following:
A number is greater than 22.
- n < 22
- n = 22
- n > 22
- n ≥ 22
Hint:
We are given a statement. We have to write the expression of inequality for the given statement. We have to see the limits given for the required value.
The correct answer is: n > 22
The given statement is as follows:
A number is greater that 22.
Let the number satisfying the above condition be represented by the variable n.
A number is greater than 22 means, it’s value cannot be equal to 22 or less than it.
The sign for greater than 22 is “>22”
The mathematical representation of the inequality is as follows:
n > 22
This is the given inequality.
For such questions, we have to be careful about the constraints applied to the given quantity.
