Solve 0.8x+0.16>0.6

$$0.8 x + 0.16 > 0.6$$

Solve for x

$$x>0.55$$

Solution Steps

Subtract 0.16 from both sides.

$$0.8x>0.6-0.16$$

Subtract 0.16 from 0.6 to get 0.44.

$$0.8x>0.44$$

Divide both sides by 0.8. Since 0.8 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.

$$x>\frac{0.44}{0.8}$$

Expand \frac{0.44}{0.8} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$x>\frac{44}{80}$$

Reduce the fraction \frac{44}{80} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

$$x>\frac{11}{20}$$
