Certainly! Let's break down the sentence "Eight is not equal to five divided by one" step by step and formulate it as an equation or inequality.
1. Identify the values and operations:
- "Eight" corresponds to the number 8.
- "Five divided by one" means \( \frac{5}{1} \).
2. Perform the division:
- Divide 5 by 1: \( \frac{5}{1} = 5 \).
3. Formulate the inequality:
- The sentence states that eight is not equal to the result of five divided by one.
- In mathematical terms, "Eight is not equal to five" can be written as:
[tex]\[
8 \neq 5
\][/tex]
This inequality shows that 8 is not equal to 5, which reflects the given context of the problem.
