    Suppose we need 4 eggs to make a cake. If there are 24 eggs, write an inequality representing the possible number of cakes we can make.

    Set up a proportion of eggs to cakes where c is the number of cakes per 24 eggs:
    4/1 <= 24/c

    Typing this proportion inequality into our search engine, we get:
    c <= 6
