Savannah needs to order some new supplies for the restaurant where she works. The restaurant needs at least 694 knives. There are currently 262 knives. If each set on
sale contains 12 knives, which inequality can be used to determine s, the minimum
number of sets of knives Savannah should buy?

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1, how many knives to buy?

The restaurant already has 262 knives. We can subtract this number from their needed 694 knives to find how many they still need:

knives.

Step 2, how many sets of knives?

The restaurant needs to buy 432 knives. We know the knives come in sets of 12, so we can divide to find the # of packs she needs to buy, determined by variable s.

Notice how the restaurant needs to buy a minimum of 694 knives, hence we use a greater or equal than symbol:

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions :)

-2

7 - 9 = -2

reversed:

-2 + 9 = 7
