Solve for "t" in 1/6 - 1/3t > 0....
First: eliminate fractions - multiply the denominators by everything...
(6)(3t)(1/6) - (6)(3t)(1/3t) > (6)(3t)(0)
Sec: cross cancel "like" terms...
(3t)(1 - (6)(1) > 0
3t - 6 > 0
Third: add "6" to both sides...
3t - 6 + 6 > 0 + 6
3t > 6
Fourth: isolate "x" on one side > divide both sides by "3"...
3t/3 > 6/3
t > 2

multiply everything by 6
1-2T > 0
add 2T
1 > 2T
so
.5 > t
