Which values of k would the product of k/3 times 12 be greater than 12?

The solution is k > 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Not all math problems have only one solution. Some math problems have multiple solutions such as set or group of solutions. These problems are called inequalities. Inequalities have solutions within a range using symbols such as >, <, ≤, and ≥. These are known as greater than, less than, less than or equal and greater than or equal. You can write any inequality expression from words into symbols using these signs.

The expression "the product of k/3 times 12 be greater than 12" is translated into

k/3 * 12 > 12

since product is multiplication.

It can be solved by simplifying the left side by doing the product. Then dividing both sided by 4 to isolate k.

12k/3 > 12

4k > 12

The solution is k > 3.
