I think pencil and paper would be the best method
By adding 3 to both sides and dividing both sides of the equation by 4 you end up with x=6
answer is x =6
Hope this helps!!
We have the following expression given:

We can start selecting as common factor 4y^2 and we got:

Now we can select y+7 as common factor and we got:

So then our final answer would be:
In order from least to greatest:
5/10 , 7/12 , 4/6
You have to find a common denominator of all 3 numbers which is 60 and then you proceed with the next steps.
