Multiply both sides by the LCM of 12. This will eliminate the fractions (note: if you need help with finding the LCM, check out this solver)

Distribute and multiply 12 by each term on both sides

Combine like terms on the left side

Divide both sides by -2 to isolate t (note: dividing by both sides by a negative number flips the inequality sign)

Reduce
