Answer:

q<392

Explanation:

First, we turn words into an inequality. Then, we solve for q.


(q)/(14) <28\\q<28*14\\q<392

It is also a good idea to check our answer, to make sure it is reasonable and we did not make a careless mistake.


3<392\\(3)/(14) <28

The value satisfies the equation, so this should be correct.
