7\left(5x-8\right)<4\left(3x-2\right)
Multiply both sides of the equation by 28, the least common multiple of 4,7. Since 28 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
35x-56<4\left(3x-2\right)
Use the distributive property to multiply 7 by 5x-8.
35x-56<12x-8
Use the distributive property to multiply 4 by 3x-2.
35x-56-12x<-8
Subtract 12x from both sides.
23x-56<-8
Combine 35x and -12x to get 23x.
23x<-8+56
Add 56 to both sides.
23x<48
Add -8 and 56 to get 48.
x<\frac{48}{23}
Divide both sides by 23. Since 23 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
