p = (7/11) m
p - 6 = m - 14
so
(7/11) m - 6 = m - 14
m - (7/11) m = 14-6 = 8
4 m/11 = 8
m/11 = 2
m = 22
p = (7/11) m = 14
check
14 - 6 ?=? 22 - 14
8 = 8 sure enough
p - 6 = m - 14
so
(7/11) m - 6 = m - 14
m - (7/11) m = 14-6 = 8
4 m/11 = 8
m/11 = 2
m = 22
p = (7/11) m = 14
check
14 - 6 ?=? 22 - 14
8 = 8 sure enough
