The numbers that will work are all numbers less than 12

How to describe what numbers will work?

The statement is given as:

One half of a number is more than six less than the same number

Let the number be represented with x

So, the mathematical expression is

1/2x > x - 6

Subtract x from both sides

-1/2x > -6

Multiply both sides by -2

x < 12

Hence, the numbers that will work are all numbers less than 12
