<span>you need to set up the equations solve for x or y. and substitute. I can give you the starting equations, but i cant find the answer and I don't remember how to do all the steps, but the first two equations (the ones you use to solve for x or y to use to solve for a number to subsitute. x-12=y y-14=3x and there should be one more for that they met two years ago.</span>
Answer:
4 and 3 <------- That's the set I believe!
The given equation is

Here we have to solve for n. First we need to get rid of the denominators and for that we do cross multiplication .

Now we need to isolate n. And for that we need to get rid of 12, by dividing both sides by 12



And that's the required value of n .
