Answer:


\large\boxed{\left\x\ }

Explanation:


(7x)/(3)<2\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 3}\\\\3\!\!\!\!\diagup^1\cdot(7x)/(3\!\!\!\!\diagup_1)<3\cdot2\\\\7x<6\qquad\text{divide both sides by 7}\\\\(7x)/(7)<(6)/(7)\\\\x<(6)/(7)

Answer: First Option

{
x|x<(6)/(7)}

Explanation:

We have the following inequality
(7)/(3)x <2

To solve the inequality, apply the following steps:

1) Multiply by 3 on both sides of the inequality


(3 * 7)/(3)x <2 * 3\\\\7x <6

2) Divide by 7 both sides of the inequality


(7)/(7)x <(6)/(7)


x <(6)/(7)

The solution is all numbers smaller than
(6)/(7)
