Karl sent Kim at least 5 letters while he was away on vacation. The inequality is  k≥ 5 right ?

jigglypuff314 · Answer

having the variable k is confusing because both their names start with k
I would have personally used L   :P
but yeah, that should be correct :)

thanks again jiggly one last question, how would you write the equation to  represent the following solution ?  I have some lemons. Jill has two more limes than five times the number of lemons that I have. Emma has one-third as many limes as Jill. Emma has 4 limes. How many lemons do I have?|dw:1386200788459:dw|
