-n%2F3%3E=-3 Start with the given inequality.


cross%283%29%28-n%2Fcross%283%29%29%3E=3%28-3%29 Multiply both sides by 3


-n%3E=-9 Multiply.


n%3C=%28-9%29%2F%28-1%29 Divide both sides by -1 to isolate n. Note: Remember, the inequality sign flips when we divide both sides by a negative number.


n%3C=9 Reduce.

Answer:

So the answer is n%3C=9
