4xis less than or equal to 6; x is less than or equal to 1.5

x/4 < 6; x < 24
x/4 < 6; x < 24

4x > 6; x > 1.5

Answer 1

4x ≤ 6; x ≤ 1.5

The correct inequality is 4x ≤ 6. To find the amount of time they can spend playing each game, we need to divide the total time (6 hours) by the number of games (4). So, x ≤ 1.5, which means they can spend a maximum of 1.5 hours playing each game.
