Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

$7x\leq x-24$

Here, $x$ denotes the required number.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ denotes the required number that satisfies the following condition.

''seven times a number is less than or equal to a quantity that is 24 less than that same number''

Seven times a number is equal to $7x$

Quantity that is 24 less than that same number is equal to $x-24$

Now find the inequality.

As seven times a number is less than or equal to a quantity that is 24 less than that same number,

$7x\leq x-24$
