The given inequality is expressed as

2x - 3 > (2x - 5)/2

To solve for x, the first step is to crossmultiply. We have

2(2x - 3) > 2x - 5

By expanding the parentheses on the left, we have

4x - 6 > 2x - 5

Subtracting 2x from both sides of the inequality, we have

4x - 2x - 6 > 2x - 2x - 5

2x - 6 > - 5

Adding 6 to both sides, we have

2x - 6 + 6 > - 5 + 6

2x > 1

Dividing both sides by 2, we have

2x/2 > 1/2

x > 1/2
