i think case should have brackets/parentheses of some sort.
check the man page, its usually the best source to check for errors

Mistakes
1. ">" is used for directing the output. When comparing in shell "-lt" etc are used.
2. Arithematics can be done in various ways. The one which you used has "let" before e.g let a=$b+$c
3. There is no space between $b, + and $c.
