In this question, you are given an equation with < (less than) sign. You can solve this equation and treat the less than sign same as an equal sign. The only difference is when you mirroring the equation or multiplying both sides with minus, which will change the direction of the sign. The calculation should be:
-24 < x-3 -8 x
-24 +3 < x - 8x
-21 < -7x
-21/-7 <x
3 <x
x>3

The answer is D.×>3
