Oops, it crashed.

\(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow {12x \over 14} - {7x \over 14} = 5 }\) \(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow {5x \over 14} = 5 }\) Multiply both sides by 14. \(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow 5x = 70 }\) \(\Large \color{MidnightBlue}{\Rightarrow x = {70 \over 5} = 14 }\)

Parth (parthkohli):

Pheww.
