2/3, less than

To solve the inequalities, let’s fill in the blanks step by step.

1. For the inequality 3 × ____ < 3:

– Divide both sides by 3: ____ < 1.
– This means any number less than 1 will satisfy this inequality, so we can say “I know this because the fraction I made is less than 1.”

2. For the inequality 3 × ____ ≥ 3:

– Divide both sides by 3: ____ ≥ 1.
– This means any number equal to or greater than 1 will satisfy this inequality, so we can say “I know this because the fraction I made is greater than or equal to 1.”
