Exercise 10 Page 149

Choose any number and check whether it is greater than 6.5.

Example Solution: 1700 calories
Other Numbers: all numbers less than or equal to 1800

Practice makes perfect
We consume at most 1800 calories per day. We want to choose a number that represents this situation.

Let's choose 1700 calories. 1700 ≤ 1800 We know that 1700 is less than 1800. This means that 1700 calories is an example of the amount of calories we eat per day. To find the other number that can represent the given situation, we can choose any number less than or equal to 1800.
