Answer:

The number is
g\leq -(1)/(32)

Explanation:

Given : Expression a number g is multiplied by -8 is at least
(1)/(4).

To find : What is the number ?

Solution :

g is multiplied by -8 i.e.
-8g

At least is
\geq

A number g is multiplied by -8 is at least
(1)/(4).


-8g\geq (1)/(4)

Divide both side by 8,


-(8g)/(8)\geq (1)/(4* 8)


-g\geq (1)/(32)

Multiply both side by -1,


g\leq -(1)/(32)

Therefore, the number is
g\leq -(1)/(32)
