Over the next 16 months you have to read 64 books. You have to read x books per month. The inequality 16 x 64 represents this situation. Solve the inequality to find the number of books you have to read per month.
You have to read
nothing books per month.

Your answer is 4 books per month.

Step-by-step explanation:

A really simple way to solve this is to simply divide 64 by 16, and you get 4. You have to read 4 books per month to reach 64 books in 16 months.

points are handed out whenever you post answers.

brainliest answers are handed out by the person asking the question, so whether your answer is picked depends entirely on whether the asker bothers to pick

if you're asking about your rank, it depends on having a certain number of points and a certain number of brainliest answers. for example, at the time of this writing, i have 44338 points out of 15000 needed for the next (nearly triple the requirement! ) but i only have 24 out of 50 required brainliest answers. this number decays, meaning after a certain amount of time (i think about a month), the total number of brainliest answers you've earned doesn't count toward this total. (i've been stuck at the same rank for a long

the lesson to learn here is that you shouldn't worry about points or rank. chances are, no matter how good an answer you may provide, your efforts will go mostly unnoticed unless you focus on the newest/most active questions that get posted.
