x%2F2+-+6+%3C+10


x%2F2+-+6%2B6+%3C+10%2B6 Add 6 to both sides


x%2F2%2B0+%3C+16


x%2F2+%3C+16


2%2A%28x%2F2%29+%3C+2%2A16 Multiply both sides by 2


2x%2F2+%3C+32


1x%2F1+%3C+32


1x+%3C+32


x+%3C+32

-----------------------------------------------------------------


The final answer is x+%3C+32 which is choice B
