Jose has scored 556 points on his math tests so far this semester. To get an A for the semester, he must score at least 660 points. Write and solve an inequality to find the minimum number of points he must score on the remaining tests, n, in order to get an A.

We want to know n, such that 556 + n >= 660. <-- We use >= symbol since at least means greater than or equal to.
556 + n >= 660

Use our equation/inequality calculator, we get n >= 104
