-4b/5 > -12
Multiply both sides by 5:
-4b > -60
Divide both sides by -4
Rule: If you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must change the direction of the inequality. However, you do not change the direction of the inequality if you add or subtract negative numbers.
