It's a question I have for math homework. I have to solve inequalities, but instead of giving the last number, they give clues, and you have to figure out the answer and then substitute it for the number.
ex. 5n-46> the number of stars on the U.S flag in 1945.
I have a few more, but for right now, I only need this one.
PLEASE HELP!

There were 48 stars on the flag in 1945.
The 49th and 50th were added in 1959.
So 5n-46 > 48
5n > 94
n > 94/5.

48.
Alaska and Hawaii weren't added until 1959.
