A logistics planner is optimizing warehouse space based on the inequality , where represents the number of pallets. After collecting the variable terms on the left side, the planner reaches the step . In the next step, the planner must divide both sides by . Because they are dividing by a negative number, the planner must remember to ____ the inequality sign to find the correct maximum number of pallets.
