    270 + x is greater than or equal to 380

    You have already spent $270, so $380 - $270 = $110

    Therefore, your inequality is:

    2.40x < 110

    x < 45.88 = 45

    In most cases, you would usually round up, but for this problem you would round to just 45 party favors, because 46 exceeds your budget.
