Final answer:

To solve the inequality -3/7m < 21, multiply both sides by -7/3 and simplify to get m > -49.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the inequality -3/7m < 21, we need to isolate m on one side of the inequality.

First, let's multiply both sides of the inequality by -7/3 to remove the fraction and maintain the inequality: (-7/3)(-3/7)m > (21)(-7/3).

Simplifying, we get m > -49.

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is m > -49.
