Answer:

n > -1

Explanation:

Six times a number is greater than 2 less than 4 times the same number.​

n - the number

six times a number: 6n

is greater than: >

2 less than 4 times the same number: 4n - 2

6n > 4n - 2 subtract 4n from both sides

6n - 4n > 4n - 4n - 2

2n > -2 divide both sides by 2

2n : 2 > - 2 : 2

n > -1
