b less-than 2 and StartFraction 1 over 15 EndFraction
b greater-than 2 and StartFraction 1 over 15 EndFraction
b less-than 3 and StartFraction 2 over 15 EndFraction
b greater-than 3 and StartFraction 2 over 15 EndFraction
Mark this and return

Answer 1

Answer:

  $b>3\frac{2}{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can multiply by 15, add 8, divide by 15. (Or, you could get there directly by adding 8/15 to both sides.)

  $2\frac{3}{5}<b-\frac{8}{15}\\\\39<15b-8\\\\47<15b\\\\\boxed{3\frac{2}{15}<b}$
