Question

Solve for n.

n/9 < n/2 - 1/3

Answer 1

let us first try to simplify the right hand side
\[{n\over2}-{1\over 3}\]

Answer 2

i would multiply by \(18\) to get rid of the annoying fractions

Answer 3

this simplifies to \[{n\times3\over2\times3}-{1\times2\over3\times2}=\]

Answer 4

I agree with satellitey

Answer 5

Multiply both sides by 18, re-arrange to bring the n's on one side and then divide both sides so that n is left on one side and a number on the other.

Answer 6

both ways lead to rome

Answer 7

i hate fractions !
\[\frac{n}{9}<\frac{n}{2}-\frac{1}{3}\]
\[18\left (\frac{n}{9}\right)<18\left (\frac{n}{2}-\frac{1}{3}\right)\]\[2n<9n-6\]

Answer 8

subtract \(2n\) from both sides to get
\[0<7n-6\] add \(6\)\[6<7n\]divide by \(7\)

Answer 9

6/7

Answer 10

your answer should be an inequality, not a number

Answer 11

\[\frac{6}{7}<n\] or
\[n>\frac{6}{7}\]

Answer 12

oh thank you
