Ok so we have $\"1%2F2t=-7\"$ What you can do in algebra is flip both sides of an equation. So $\"1%2F2t\"$ will become $\"2t%2F1\"$ and $\"-7\"$ which is really $\"-7%2F1\"$ will become $\"-1%2F7\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So now we have.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2t=-1%2F7\"$ Now you divide both sides by two. Dividing a fraction can be confusing so you can multiply by $\"1%2F2\"$ instead of dividing by 2.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"t=%28-1%2F7%29%2A%281%2F2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Giving us.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"t=-1%2F14\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
