I'd like to preface this by saying that since I'm on mobile I can't type out the less/greater than or equal to signs, so I'll just be using words.

'x' Will stand for the ride/auditorium/max weight

1. x is less than or equal to 8

2. x is less than or equal to 250

3. x is less than or equal to 2,400
