Inequality is simply a type of equation that does not have an equal sign in it. Inequality is defined as a statement about the relative size as we will as is use it to compare two statements.

Simplification is to make something easier to do or understand and to make something less complicated.

Shantira is thinking of a number n.

Her first clue is that six less than six times her number is between twenty-four and forty-eight.

Let n be the integer number.

Then according to the condition,

Her first clue is that six less than six times her number is between twenty-four and forty-eight.

24 < 6n - 6 < 48

Add 6, then

30 < 6n < 54

Divide it by 6

5 < n < 9

So the value of the integer number n is greater than 5 and less than 9.
