Answer: The inequality is x/3
\leq 4 and x
\leq 12

Explanation:

The quotient of x and 3 is the same as x/3 and the at most sign is less than or equal to. x/3 has to be less than or equal to 4 which can be represented by the inequality,

x /3 ≤ 4 Solve for x by multiplying both sides by 3.

x ≤ 12
