Clarify this, please:\[1/4b \le6\]Do you mean (1/4)*b or do you mean 1 / (4b)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

One fourth b. Just like it is.

OpenStudy (mathmale):

I would not have asked for clarification had I not had a valid concern. Your 1/4b could be interpreted in more than one way. If you mean "one fourth b," then please present it as (1/4) b, or b/4, or\[\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }b\]

OpenStudy (mathmale):

I'm not picking on you. It is essential to present mathematical statements in such a way that there is only one interpretation. Please re-write \[1/4b \le6\]in such a way that it cannot be misinterpreted. What is the goal of this problem?
