kim wants to buy candy for 4 dollars a pound. if she wants to spend less than 20 dollars, how many bags can she buy

Since cost = price * quantity, we have the following inequality with b as the number of bags:
4b < 20

To solve this inequality for b, we type it in our search engine and we get:
b < 5
