Jacob wants to use an elevator to carry identical packages having the same weight. Each package weighs 3 pounds and Jacob weighs
99 pounds. If the elevator can carry a maximum of 300 pounds at a time, which inequality shows the maximum number of packages, n, that Jacob can carry with himself in the elevator if he is the only passenger? n ≤ 67
n ≥ 67
n ≤ 198
n ≥ 198
First, it is necessary to remember that Jacob weights 99 pounds. Another important number is 300, the pound the elevator can carry. Finally, Jacob has identical packages that weight 3 pounds. So we need to perform the following calculations:
