1) $$6a > 5a \Rightarrow 6a - 5a > 0 \Rightarrow a > 0$$.
2) $$\frac{a}{8} < \frac{a}{9} \Rightarrow \frac{a}{8} - \frac{a}{9} < 0 \Rightarrow \frac{9a - 8a}{72} < 0 \Rightarrow \frac{a}{72} < 0 \Rightarrow a < 0$$.
3) $$-7a > -9a \Rightarrow -7a + 9a > 0 \Rightarrow 2a > 0 \Rightarrow a > 0$$.
4) $$-\frac{a}{100} > -\frac{a}{10} \Rightarrow -\frac{a}{100} + \frac{a}{10} > 0 \Rightarrow \frac{-a + 10a}{100} > 0 \Rightarrow \frac{9a}{100} > 0 \Rightarrow a > 0$$.
