To solve the inequality -1/2 > 3/5, we can start by multiplying both sides of the inequality by the least common multiple of the denominators, which is 10, to get rid of the fractions. This gives us:

-1/2 * 10 > 3/5 * 10

-5 > 6

This inequality is not true, since -5 is not greater than 6. So the solution set is the empty set, or { }.
