Hey there! I'm happy to help!
Inequalities are solved like normal equations with a few extra rules.
So, we could simply divide both sides by -3 to get our answer, but n<-4 would actually be incorrect. With inequalities, dividing by a negative number means you have to flip the inequality sign. This is because you turn the other side negative so you need to adjust the inequality sign to match it.
So, our final answer will actually be n>-4.
Have a wonderful day and keep on learning! :D
