Answer: Yes

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Ed's birthday is less than 16 days

away and that Ann writes the inequality

d< 16, where d equals the number

of days, to represent this.

The inequality d < 16 is correct as it explains that the number of days left is less than 16.
