\"x%2F7%29+-+1+%3C+%282%2F3%29\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Start by adding 1 to both sides of the inequality\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%28x%2F7%29+-+1+%2B+1+%3C+%282%2F3%29+%2B+1\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "simplifying gives us
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2F7+%3C+1%2B2%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Change 1+ 2/3 into an improper fraction 3/3 + 2/3 or 5/3 so
\n" ); document.write( "\"x%2F7+%3C+5%2F3\"
\n" ); document.write( "Now multiply both sides of the inequality by 7
\n" ); document.write( "\"7%2A%28x%2F7%29%3C7%2A%285%2F3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "simplifying gives us \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x%3C35%2F3\" or as a mixed number x< 11 2/3
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
