This inequality doesn't involve a variable, so we can't solve it, we can just tell whether it's true or false.

First of all, we solve the parenthesis:


3(61-1)>18-36 \iff 3\cdot 60>18-36

Perform the operations on both sides:


180>-18

This is true, because 180 is indeed greater than -18 (every positive number is greater than any negative number)
