Shane and Abha earned a team badge that required their team to collect no less than 2000 cans
for recycling. Abha collected 178 more cans than Shane did. Write an inequality to determine
the number of cans, S, that Shane could have collected.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

S = Shane collected.

S+178 = Abha collected.


Together

    S + (S+178) >= 2000


This is the inequality you request for.
