This can be written as:
40  \leq  n - 2

"No greater than" does not necessarily mean less than, but it just means it cannot go over. So equal to or less than.

"The difference of a number and 2" can be represented as "n - 2"

If you were to solve this inequality, you would end up getting:
42  \leq  n or n  \geq  42

Hope this helps! :)

Students were surveyed about their favorite colors 1/4 of the students preferred read 1/8 of the students preferred blue and 3/5
Elanso [62]

Answer: the number of students that were surveyed is 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = total number of students that were surveyed about their favorite colors

1/4 of the students preferred red.

This means that the number of students that preferred red is 1/4 × x = x/4

1/8 of the students preferred blue.

This means that the number of students that preferred blue is 1/8 × x = x/8

The remaining number of students will be the total number of students - the sum of the number of students that preferred red and the number of students that preferred blue. It becomes

x - (x/4 + x/8) = x - 3x/8 = 5x/8

3/5 of the remaining students were for green. This means that the number of students that preferred green is 3/5 × 5x/8 = 3x/8

if 15 students prefer green, then

3x/8 = 15

3x = 120

x = 120/3 = 40 students
