The solution to the inequality is x > 2.

Explanation:

According to given statement;

The inequality is;


(5)/(6)x-(1)/(3)>1(1)/(3)

Solving the inequality;


(5)/(6)x-(1)/(3)>(4)/(3)

Adding 1/3 on both sides


(5)/(6)x-(1)/(3)+(1)/(3)>(4)/(3)+(1)/(3)\\\\(5)/(6)x>(4+1)/(3)\\\\(5)/(6)x>(5)/(3)

Multiplying both sides by
(6)/(5)


(6)/(5)*(5)/(6)x>(5)/(3)*(6)/(5)\\x>2

Therefore;

The solution to the inequality is x > 2.
