is answer right
         

                     14s-3-7s=9
                     75-3+3=9+3
                        7s=12
                        7   7
                          s=1.7

You are right if you are to round off to tenths.
But if you are to get an exact fraction answer,
then the answer is s = 12/7 or 1 5/7.
