Generalizing the notion of a multiplicative inequality among minors of a totally positive matrix, we describe, over full rank cluster algebras of finite type, the cone of Laurent monomials in cluster variables that are bounded as real-valued functions on the positive locus of the cluster variety. We prove that the extreme rays of this cone are the u -variables of the cluster algebra. Using this description, we prove that all bounded ratios are bounded by 1 and give a sufficient condition for all such ratios to be subtraction free. This allows us to show in Gr ( 2 , n ) , Gr ( 3 , 6 ) , Gr ( 3 , 7 ) , and Gr ( 3 , 8 ) that every bounded Laurent monomial in Plücker coordinates factors into a positive integer combination of so-called primitive ratios. In Gr ( 4 , 8 ) this factorization does not exists, but we provide the full list of extreme rays of the cone of bounded Laurent monomials in Plücker coordinates.
