Question

Solve.... 24x<100 when 'x' is a natural number

Answer 1

24x=100
X=100/24
x=4.16
X=1,2,3,4

Answer 2

Hey.. Solution :-

(i) Given that 24x < 100

Now we have to divide the inequality by 24 then we get x < 25/6

Now when x is a natural integer then.

It is clear that the only natural number less than 25/6 are 1, 2, 3, 4.

Thus, 1, 2, 3, 4 will be the solution of the given inequality when x is a natural number.

Hence {1, 2, 3, 4} is the solution set.

(ii) Given that 24x < 100

Now we have to divide the inequality by 24 then we get x < 25/6

now when x is an integer then

It is clear that the integer number less than 25/6 are…-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4.

Thus, solution of 24 x < 100 are…,-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, when x is an integer.

Hence {…, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4} is the solution set.
