3x<5x+885
Multiply both sides of the equation by 15, the least common multiple of 5,3. Since 15 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
3x-5x<885
Subtract 5x from both sides.
-2x<885
Combine 3x and -5x to get -2x.
x>-\frac{885}{2}
Divide both sides by -2. Since -2 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
