6x-5<3x+18
Multiply both sides of the equation by 6, the least common multiple of 6,2. Since 6 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
6x-5-3x<18
Subtract 3x from both sides.
3x-5<18
Combine 6x and -3x to get 3x.
3x<18+5
Add 5 to both sides.
3x<23
Add 18 and 5 to get 23.
x<\frac{23}{3}
Divide both sides by 3. Since 3 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same.
