Answer: option c.

Explanation:

Given the following inequality:


5m < -25

You need to solve for "m".

Then, in order to solve for "m", you can apply the Division property of inequality and divide both sides by -5. So, you get:


(5m)/(5)<(-25)/(5)\\\\m<-5

Therefore, the solution of the inequality provided written in Set Notation is:

{
m| m<-5}
