Okay!

The most important part of this problem is knowing which inequality sign to use

Greater than >

Less Than  <

Equal to .. =

Greater or equal to ≥

Less than or equal to  ≤

Charlotte needs AT LEAST 5,000 votes, meaning she has to have 5,000 votes or more

That means we use this sign →  ≤

Now lets set up an equation to find how many more we need

5,000  ≤  3,187 + X

solve for X

1,813 ≤ X

Hope I helped :) Sorry for the long explanation
