Whenever you had to make an inequality equation remember to use these signs
( < , > )

So the first one :
Since grant is buying fewer than 12
So no. Articles of clothing is smaller than 12

To convert that statement in to mathematical equation its better to ise signs , variables and numbers

Lets say article of clothing is X
So : X < 12


Second:
Nick runs less than 6 mile
Lets say No. Miles is X
So X < 6
