Answer:

Solving with an equality is just simply the same as solving any algebra equations. If you were given a fraction, then just multiply both sides.

Example:

4 +
(x)/(2) > 14

Subtract 4 on both sides:

4 - 4 +
(x)/(2) > 14 - 4


(x)/(2) > 10

Now multiply both sides by 2:


(x)/(2) × 2 > 10 × 2

x > 20
