Given the numerical inequality:

1.40x less than or equal to 5.60

Solution:

The given inequality can be represented as,

1.40x ≤ 5.60

In order to solve for the inequality, we simply needed to divide both sides by 1.4 to cancel out 1.4x leaving behind x.

1.40x ≤ 5.60

1.40x/1.40 ≤ 5.60 / 1.40

x ≤ 4

Final answer:

x ≤ 4
