5/12-(x-3)/6≤(x-2)/3
solve with a step by step solution

x>3 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

5/12-(x-3)/6 <(x-2)/3

5/12 *12-(x-3)/6*12<(x-2)/6*12

5-2(x-3)<4(x-2)

5-2x+6<4x-8

-2x+11<4x-8

-2x<4x-19

-6x<-19

-6x(-1)<-19(-1)

6x>19

x>19/6

x>3 1/6

just change all the inequality signs to a x is greater or equal to 3 1/6 and on the rest change to and < and equal sign only put > or equal sign on the last three lines
