John needs to buy at least 4 pounds of oranges. If oranges cost $1.75 per pound, and he has a $10 budget, which inequality represents the possible number of pounds (p) he can buy?

A 4 ≤ p ≤ 1.75
B 4 ≤ p ≤ 10/1.75
C 1.75p ≤ 10
D p ≥ 4

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

John must buy at least 4 pounds, so p ≥ 4. His budget constraint is 1.75p ≤ 10, which means p ≤ 10/1.75. Combining these, 4 ≤ p ≤ 10/1.75.
