14=-2k+3

I need help with this problem. I'm getting multiple answers. One answer is k = -5.5
Another answer is k = -11/2
Can you help me understand this? Are these two answers the same? If so, can you tell me how you get -11/2 and why you write it as a fraction/mixed number?

They are the same answer.

14 = -2k + 3
14-3 = -2k
11= -2k

-(11/2) = k
