Answer = -33
Explanation:
A number (c) increased by 9 = c + 9
Greater than -24 = c + 9 > -24
Keeping in view the question we deduce the equation
c + 9 > -24
Solve and simplify the above equation accordingly,
c > -24 – 9
c = -33
So c is greater than -33 (Note it is greater only, NOT equal to)
Hope this method helps to understand the word problem!
