If p ≤ 11 and p is a multiple of 3, what is a possible value of p?

Well, there's quite a lot of values, let's work this out. So, some of the regulations are that p is 11 or under. Another is that p is a multiple of three. Without even touching negatives we can get:

p=9

p=6

p=3

Now, there are infinite values for this problem, so if there are other constraints I am unaware of, please tell me and I will give you a better answer.

A possible value of p would be 9.

The symbol ≤ means that the value of p will be less than or equal to the value of 11.

There are three multiples of 3 that are less than 11: 3, 6, and 9.

The value of p can be any of these three, and the inequality will still remain true.
