Amelia started by subtracting 7.2b from both sides to get 6.5 > –2.4b – 8.1.
Luis started by subtracting 4.8b from both sides to get 2.4b + 6.5 < – 8.1.
Shauna started by subtracting 6.5 from both sides to get 7.2b > 4.8b – 14.6.
Clarence started by adding 8.1 to both sides to get 7.2b + 14.6 > 4.8b.
