When you see this kind of problem, imagine the < sign in your head as the = sign (just for easier to recognize, do not change it permanently) . Then you have
-2x>6===>-2x=6
Now it’s easier to do
-2x=6
But remember that you are still doing an inequality kind of problem so remember to change the sign when you divide or multiply inequality.
x<6/-2
x<-3
As you can see that i changed the >sign into the0
