Question 258703: Inequalities seemed all pretty simple but when I try to complete the problem it seems complicated. Here is my Problem.
5/6x-1/6 < x-4
write the solution in interval notation.
It seems to be more complicated for me when the variable is represented as a fraction.

%285%2F6%29x-%281%2F6%29+%3C+x-4
If you don't like the fractions, multiply both sides of the equation by 6.
5x-1%3C6x-24
23%3Cx
x%3E23
