The main difference is that when solving inequalities, if you multiply or divide by a negative number you have to be careful, since you then also have to switch the sign (for example, change a "less-than" sign to a "greater-than" sign). If you multiply or divide by an expression that contains a variable, you have to consider the two cases: that such an expression might be positive, or that it might be negative.
