6000+\left(1-\frac{1}{4}\right)\times 6000\left(x-1\right)<\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)\times 6000x
Reduce the fraction \frac{25}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 25.
6000+\left(\frac{4}{4}-\frac{1}{4}\right)\times 6000\left(x-1\right)<\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)\times 6000x
Convert 1 to fraction \frac{4}{4}.
6000+\frac{4-1}{4}\times 6000\left(x-1\right)<\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)\times 6000x
Since \frac{4}{4} and \frac{1}{4} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
6000+\frac{3}{4}\times 6000\left(x-1\right)<\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)\times 6000x
Subtract 1 from 4 to get 3.
6000+\frac{3\times 6000}{4}\left(x-1\right)<\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)\times 6000x
Express \frac{3}{4}\times 6000 as a single fraction.
6000+\frac{18000}{4}\left(x-1\right)<\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)\times 6000x
Multiply 3 and 6000 to get 18000.
6000+4500\left(x-1\right)<\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)\times 6000x
Divide 18000 by 4 to get 4500.
6000+4500x-4500<\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)\times 6000x
Use the distributive property to multiply 4500 by x-1.
1500+4500x<\left(1-\frac{20}{100}\right)\times 6000x
Subtract 4500 from 6000 to get 1500.
1500+4500x<\left(1-\frac{1}{5}\right)\times 6000x
Reduce the fraction \frac{20}{100} to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 20.
1500+4500x<\left(\frac{5}{5}-\frac{1}{5}\right)\times 6000x
Convert 1 to fraction \frac{5}{5}.
1500+4500x<\frac{5-1}{5}\times 6000x
Since \frac{5}{5} and \frac{1}{5} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
1500+4500x<\frac{4}{5}\times 6000x
Subtract 1 from 5 to get 4.
1500+4500x<\frac{4\times 6000}{5}x
Express \frac{4}{5}\times 6000 as a single fraction.
1500+4500x<\frac{24000}{5}x
Multiply 4 and 6000 to get 24000.
1500+4500x<4800x
Divide 24000 by 5 to get 4800.
1500+4500x-4800x<0
Subtract 4800x from both sides.
1500-300x<0
Combine 4500x and -4800x to get -300x.
-300x<-1500
Subtract 1500 from both sides. Anything subtracted from zero gives its negation.
x>\frac{-1500}{-300}
Divide both sides by -300. Since -300 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
x>5
Divide -1500 by -300 to get 5.
