By finding an inequality, we see that:

"Owen can have a maximum of 22 rabbits in the store."

How many rabbits can Owen have in the store?

We know that he needs 1lb of food for every 4 rabbits, and we know that he currently has 5.7 lb of food.

Then the maximum number of rabbits that he can feed with that food is:

max = (5.7)*4 = 22.8

So the number of rabbits that he can have is:

x < 22.8

or

x ≤ 22

To just have whole numbers.

Then the correct option is:

"Owen can have a maximum of 22 rabbits in the store."
