Let x be the number of gallons Mrs M can purchase;

Given information:

Price per gallon: $3.50

Mrs M. Total budget: $10.50


\begin{gathered} 3.50x\text{ }≤\text{ }10.50 \\ \end{gathered}

Solving for the number of gallons Mrs M can purchase:


\begin{gathered} x\leq(10.50)/(3.50) \\ \\ x\text{ }\operatorname{\leq}\text{ }3 \end{gathered}
