An inequality is similar, but not exactly
like an equality
Whatever you do to one side, you must
also do to the other side
---------------------
Add to both sides
Divide both sides by
---------------
The > sign means "is greater than
is slightly less than ,
so it's OK for , but it's
not OK for
-----------------------
check:
This is true is greater than
but
This is false is not greater than
----------
So, works
