Answer:

  (3/4)b ≤ 2 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 3/4 cup of sugar is required in each of the b batches, the total amount of sugar in those batches is

  (3/4)b

cups.

The problem statement tells us the value of this cannot exceed the available amount, 2 5/8 cups, so the inequality is ...

  (3/4)b ≤ 2 5/8
