52x-\frac{5}{3}-x<1
Subtract x from both sides.
51x-\frac{5}{3}<1
Combine 52x and -x to get 51x.
51x<1+\frac{5}{3}
Add \frac{5}{3} to both sides.
51x<\frac{3}{3}+\frac{5}{3}
Convert 1 to fraction \frac{3}{3}.
51x<\frac{3+5}{3}
Since \frac{3}{3} and \frac{5}{3} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
51x<\frac{8}{3}
Add 3 and 5 to get 8.
x<\frac{\frac{8}{3}}{51}
Divide both sides by 51. Since 51 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
