Answer 1

@nincompoop

Answer 2

okay so if you were to subtract the same quantitity from both sides the inequality still holds

Answer 3

for example|
say
we have
5>4
which is true

if we subtract 2 from both sides

5-2>4-2
we just shifted the numbers down by 2

3>2

Answer 4

same thing with multiplication

Answer 5

suppose
a > b
then
3a>3b is still true
