To solve the inequality, we can first simplify both sides of the equation:
1/4x - 3/4 > 5 1/4
To add the fractions on the right side, we need to find a common denominator, which is 4. So, 5 1/4 can be rewritten as 5 + 1/4, which is 20/4 + 1/4 = 21/4.
Now the inequality becomes:
1/4x - 3/4 > 21/4
Next, we can remove the fractions by multiplying both sides of the inequality by the denominator (4):
4 * (1/4x - 3/4) > 4 * (21/4)
This results in:
1x - 3 > 21
Adding 3 to both sides, we get:
1x > 24
Finally, we can simplify it further:
x > 24
So the solution to the inequality is x > 24.
