Question

How do you solve `4<c/5`?

Answer 1

See the entire solution process below:

Explanation:

Multiply each side of the inequality by `color(red)(5)` to solve for `c` while keeping the inequality balanced:

`color(red)(5) xx 4 < color(red)(5) xx c/5`

`20 < cancel(color(red)(5)) xx c/color(red)(cancel(color(black)(5)))`

`20 < c`

To solve in terms of `c` we must reverse or "flip" the inequality:

`c > 20`
