You can
put this solution on YOUR website! What is the difference between "you need to have less than 4 buckets" and "you need at most 4 buckets"? This question is very simple, but I don't know how to express it the proper way. How would you express the answer to this problem or am I making this to complicated? Greatly appreciate an assist. Thanks
"You need to have less than 4 buckets"
means
"You need to have either 0 buckets, 1 bucket, 2 buckets,
or 3 buckets."
whereas,
"You need at most 4 buckets"
means
"You need to have either 0 buckets, 1 bucket, 2 buckets,
3 buckets, or 4 buckets."
In other words, the first does not allow you to have 4 buckets,
but the second one does allow you to have 4 buckets.
