Answer:

x > 1/3

Explanation:

Let us represent the number as x

The product of 10 and a number is greater then the difference of 4 times the number and two

The above statement is interpreted mathematically as:

10 × x > 4x - 2

10x > 4x - 2

Collect like terms

10x - 4x > 2

6x > 2

x > 2/6

x > 1/3

Therefore,x > 1/3
