A guess is that you really have 2%2Fr-1%2B4%2Fr%2B5=7 .

6%2Fr%2B4=7
6%2B4r=7r
6=3r
highlight%28r=2%29

Equation in your post is written incorrectly.

In this form, it can not be read and can not be solved.

@josgarithmetic makes mathematical CRIME, when tries to interpret/(to guess)
what can not be interpreted/(guessed) correctly.

Therefore, for your safety, you better ignore his post and do not accept this crime.

Simply make necessary corrections and re-post the corrected version to the forum.

Please do not re-post it to me in person.
