Question

1. the maximum number of marbles in the jar is 3,400. write an inequality to represent this situation?

Explanation:

Step1: Define the variable

Let \( m \) represent the number of marbles in the jar.

Step2: Translate the situation into an inequality

The maximum number of marbles is 3,400, which means the number of marbles \( m \) is less than or equal to 3,400. So the inequality is \( m \leq 3400 \).

Answer:

\( m \leq 3400 \) (where \( m \) is the number of marbles in the jar)
