remember the inverse operation of multiplication is division and vice versa
and the inverse operation of addition is subtraction and vice versa
so in #1 ,
d/6 < 12 , we have a division by 6, so the inverse is multiplication by 6
so multiply both sides by 6
d < 72
in #2
m-27 = 85
m - 27 + 27 = 85 + + 27
m = 112
looks like a big deal is made about nothing
using "transformations" to solve such trivial questions as #3 and #4 ????
Why not just go ahead and solve it ?
Ummm OK thanks; I think I have a couple more questions coming up...
