You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Assume you want to solve for x:
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-4x%2F7+-+11%2F14+=+5%2F6\"$
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply equation by the common denominator of 42, you get:
\n" ); document.write( "6(-4x) - 3(11) = 7(5)
\n" ); document.write( "-24x - 33 = 35
\n" ); document.write( "-24x = 35 + 33
\n" ); document.write( "-24x = 68
\n" ); document.write( "x = 68/-24
\n" ); document.write( "x = -17/6 \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
