In order to solve this inequation we need to follow this route:
50-8m ≥ 0
Lets put the variables on one side and the numbers on the other side. Every variable or number that will change sides, will have their sign changed from a + into a - and vice versa.
50 ≥ 8m
Divide both sides with 8.
50/8 ≥ 8m/8
5 > m
