Help me PLEASE!

You need to make at least 360 wraps for a party. You can make 9 wraps per minute.
How long will it take you to make the number of wraps you need?

In two or more complete sentences write and solve an inequality for the situation and explain how you will solve the inequality.

Explanation:

for 1 min=9 wraps

for x(unknown minutes)=360 wraps

so I crossed multiply:

9x=360

x=360/9

x=40

so it takes 40 minutes to make 360 wraps
