Without parenthesese we don't know where your fractions begin and end. If I am misinterpretting this let me know:
L1)
L2)
Multiply L1 by 3 and L2 by 7 to clear the fractions.
L1) -->>
L2)-->>
Now multiply L1 by 4 and L2 by -3, add L1+L2 to eliminate the x's and solve for y:
L1) -->
L2) -->
:
12x-20y=84
-12x-21y=39
____________
-41y=123

Substitute -41/14 in for y in one of the equations and solve for x.

(x,y)=(2,-3)
Happy Calculating!!!
