Question 245867
first combine like elements on each side
2g+14+5g=8g-3+8
2g+5g on the left can be combined to 7g
-3+8 on the right can be combined to 5
so now we have 
7g+14=8g+5
what we do to one side of the equation we must to the the other side.
so if we subtract 5 from the right side we have to subtract 5 from the left side.
so now we have 
7g+9=8g
now we can subtract 7g from both sides
and we get 9=1g or 9=g
