If −84 is less-than (<) 7c, then 7c must be higher in value than −84.
So 7 multiplied by what =−84? Using a calculator, trial and error, or by dividing −84 by 7, you will find that
7⋅(−12)=−84
So your answer is: 'c is more than −12' OR 'c>−12' as any number higher in value than −12 could equal c.
Hope this helps!
