Question 334696: There are 88 keys on a new piano. If there are 12 pianos in a room of twelve broken pianos, which some may have broken keys, how many piano keys could be on the pianos? Write and Solve and inequality to answer the question. Answer by nyc_function(2741) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The number of keys on a broken piano can range from 0 to 88. If we have 12 broken pianos, then the number of keys on them can range from 12 * 0 as a minimum to 12 * 88 as a maximum. We can write this as
12 * 0 ≤ x ≤ 12 * 88
0 ≤ x ≤ 1,056
