Answer:

3 is the answer.

Explanation:

You will have to divide both sides by 3.7, and you will get x<3.3. But because 3 is lesser than 3.3, it is the largest possible integer that satisfies the inequality.

Hey there!


EQUATION:

3.7x < 12.3

DIVIDE 3.7 to BOTH SIDES:

3.7x/3.7 < 12.3/3.7

SIMPLIFY IT!

x < 12.3/3.7

ANSWER:

x < 3.324324


Therefore, your answer is:

x < 3.324324


Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
