When dealing with inequalities, you won't get just one number for the answer, you'll get a range of numbers. Let n = the range of numbers.
\n" ); document.write( "\"%281%2F2%29%28n+%2B+6%29+%3C+25\" Multiply both sides by 2.
\n" ); document.write( "\"n+%2B+6+%3C+50\" Subtract 6 from both sides.
\n" ); document.write( "\"n+%3C+44\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "As you can see, the answer is the range of all the numbers that are less than 44, i.e. 43, 42, 41, 40,...
\n" ); document.write( "
