Solve 60+0.3m<25+0.8m

$$60 + 0.3 m < 25 + 0.8 m$$

Solve for m

$$m>70$$

Solution Steps

Subtract 0.8m from both sides.

$$60+0.3m-0.8m<25$$

Combine 0.3m and -0.8m to get -0.5m.

$$60-0.5m<25$$

Subtract 60 from both sides.

$$-0.5m<25-60$$

Subtract 60 from 25 to get -35.

$$-0.5m<-35$$

Divide both sides by -0.5. Since -0.5 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.

$$m>\frac{-35}{-0.5}$$

Expand \frac{-35}{-0.5} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

$$m>\frac{-350}{-5}$$

Divide -350 by -5 to get 70.

$$m>70$$
