To solve for n, you need to isolate n by itself. First, on the right side of the inequality, using the distributive property, multiply 12 by everything in the parenthesis:

-132 > 12n + 108

Next, to isolate n, subtract both sides of the inequality by 108:
-108 + -132 > 12n

Simplify the left side:

-240 > 12n

Finally, divide both sides of the inequality by 12:

-240%2F12+%3E+12n%2F12 =

-20 > n
