Inequalities.

In the Inequalities VIC guide a strategy has been mentioned to convert the inequality into a equation.

For eg- a>3 is a=GT3; GT =Greater than

My question is if m>-3
n>-4

Does mn=GT(-3)*GT(-4)=GT(12) Something seems wrong here

yes. the think to keep in mind about this method is that it is not mathematically rigorous, and sometimes it will actually give you incorrect results! for this reason, i recommend avoiding its use entirely. if however you have no idea how to do an inequality problem this approach will do better in the long run than random guessing..
