I would like to know why it holds that doing the same thing to both sides of an inequality works. In my head its clear, I would just like some condensed clarity from someone else, how would you explain it?
For example, 10>5
if I just take 1 from 10, then you get 9>5 this still holds despite only taking 1 from 10. In more complex examples, does it have anything to do with a common difference or common ratio. 5/10 = 1/2 is not the same relationship as 5/9?
