One way to understand division is to look at it as repeated
subtraction. When you "divide by" a divisor number, you're
asking "how many times can I subtract this divisor from the
dividend, before the dividend is all used up ?".
Well, if the divisor is ' 1 ', then you're taking ' 1 ' away from the
dividend each time, and the number of times will be exactly
the same as the dividend.
If the divisor is more than ' 1 ', then you subtract more than ' 1 '
from the dividend each time, and the number of times you can
do that is less than the dividend itself.
If the divisor is less than ' 1 ', then you only take away a piece of
' 1 ' each time. You can do that more times than the number in
the dividend, because you only take away a piece each time.

5. False
Step-by-step explanation:
12x > 18x - 27 - 15
12x > 18x - 42
12x - 18x > -42
-6x > -42
x < -42/-6
two negatives make a positive so now its x < 42/6
Lastly divide 42/6 so it can equal 7
Answer: X < 7.
