1.20m-25+m> 2m-13-0.4m

2.20m-25 > 1.6m-13 ... Combine like terms.

2.20m > 1.6m-13+25 ... Add 25 to both sides.

2.20m-1.6m > -13+25 ... Subtract 1.6m from both sides.

0.6m > 12 ... Combine like terms.

m > 12/0.6 ... Divide both sides by 0.6.

m > 20 ... Divide

So the final answer is m > 20

Note: each step (including the final answer) needs to have an underline under each inequality.
