solution:
x+%3C=+5%2F4
but you need to express the solution using interval notation which is
(-infinity, 5%2F4]

Your teacher wants the answer in interval notation. The inequality x ≤ 5/4 translates to the interval notation (-∞, 5/4]

If (-∞, 5/4] doesn't work, then try (-∞, 1.25] since 5/4 = 1.25 exactly without any rounding done to it.
