Rayann has 4 bracelets, jennifer has 8 bracelets, june has 3 bracelets, and tammy has 5 bracelets. they want to redistribute the bracelets so that each girl has the same number of bracelets. if the bracelets are redistributed, how many should each girl get?

4

5

6

7

what’s the question?

hey there! : )

4y < -4

we need to isolate y. we can do this by simply dividing both sides by 4.

4y ÷ 4 > -4 ÷ 4

simplify.

y > -1

5 - y > 0

once again, we need to isolate y, so we can start off by subtracting 5 from both sides.

5 - y - 5 > 0 - 5

simplify.

-y > -5

divide both sides by -1.

** remember that when dividing any side by a negative, you must switch the sign! **

-y ÷ -1 < -5 ÷ -1

simplify.

y < 5
