Answer:

15 < w

Explanation:

We are given the expression "21 is less than w + 6" and are asked to solve this inequality for "w".

To do so, we first need to create the actual inequality, if 21 is less than w + 6, then the sign we should use is the less than sign (<).

21 < w + 6

Now we solve for w, which is by isolating w :

21 < w + 6

Subtract 6 from both sides :

15 < w
