Problem

Eight less than four times a number is less than 56 . What are the possible values of that number? x>12 x<12 x<16 x>16

Solution

Step 1 :Let the number be represented as x. The given condition is: \(4x - 8 < 56\)

Step 2 :To solve the inequality, first add 8 to both sides: \(4x < 64\)

Step 3 :Next, divide both sides by 4: \(x < 16\)

Step 4 :\(\boxed{x < 16}\) is the final answer.
