Your problem is not copied properly, do you mean to say 12%2F7x??? because that's how you wrote it. I'm assuming you mean 12x%2F7 The x on top or middle is the same thing, but it's not equivalent to the x being on the bottom. Use proper brackets so that we could see the correct problem.
%287%2F3%29%2812x%2F7%29=%2812x%2F3%29=4x
