Answer: ( -∞ , - 21 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x , so from the question , we have

5(x+27) ≥ 6 ( x + 26 )

expanding , we have

5x + 135 ≥ 6x + 156

5x - 6x ≥ 156 - 135

- x ≥ 21

Therefore :

x ≤ - 21

So , the numbers less or equal to -21 are -21 ,-22 , -23 ...

so the solution set is ( - ∞ , 21 )
