If this, 6-x%2F3%2B1%3E2%2F3 is not what you have, then express it correctly.


The skills you already have are mostly enough. Isolate x, simplify and that's it. Be aware that if you MULTIPLY OR DIVIDE the members by a negative value, the order relation must be reversed.

6-x%2F3%2B1%3E2%2F3
6%2B1-2%2F3%3Ex%2F3
5-2%2F3%3Ex%2F3

6-x/3+1>2/3
Is the numerator 6 - x or just x. Is it that difficult to use PARENTHESES?
