This depends upon whether the question is:
(5 more than 6 times a number) + 4 >= 41
or
5 more than (6 times a number + 4) >= 41
.
Can you see the difference?

Let's work the first one.
(6x+5) + 4 >= 41
Subtract 4 from each side
6x+5 >= 41
Subtract 5 from each side
6x >= 36
Divide each side by 6
x >= 6
x is greater than or equal to 6
