'of' means multiply

1/4 of (1/4 times ) the opposite of (-) difference of 5 and a number (5-n) is lesss than 20 (<20)

1/4 times -(5-n)<20
multiply both sides by 1/4
-(5-n)<5
multiply both sides by -1 remember to flip sign
5-n>-5
add n
5>n-5
add 5
10>n
n<10

Help a girl out with geometry
Darya [45]
Follow the steps

106=x+79+x+45
106=2x+124
-124= -124
-18=2x
( -18)/2=(2x)/2 <----- solving for x
-9=x

then
angle LMF= -9+79
=70

angle FMN= -9+45
= 36
(when you add 70 and 36 together you get 106 which is the measurement of angle LMN or in other word the whole thing)

In conclusion the answer to the problem is:
Angle LMF is equal to 70.
