The first inequality I think when I look at this is Q > 1 where Q is the number of questions you asked.
Answer:
Melinda earned This month = 567 = T
Melinda earned Last month = ? = L
The This Month is at least three times as much as the Last Month
The This month is at least 3 times as much as L
The 567 is at least 3 times as much as L
The 567 >= 3 times as much as L
567 >= 3 times L
567 >= 3 L
Then do the rest like that yourself, one little step at the time, til you can reduce the word problem into inequalities. Which step did you find most difficult?
