What is the X in the problem
Write the Inequality
A number b times -16 is greater than 5.
A number b is a variable... b.
Times means multiply.
-16 is what you are multiplying b by.
Is greater than means the greater than symbol.
5 is what the past statements are greater than.
So this is the inequality.
-16b > 5
Solve the Inequality
You need to isolate b.
To do this, divide each side by -16. You do this because b is being multiplied by -16. You know that any number divided by that number equals 1, canceling the number.
-16b ÷ -16 = b
5 ÷ -16 = -5/16
So you get b > -5/16
So to make the inequality true, b must be more than -5/16.
Or as an inequality...
b > -5/16
The number 239 is a prime number.
This means that it can only be factored into it's own number times 1
