Answer: s = 42

===============================================

Step-by-step explanation:

To isolate s, we need to undo the division. We'll multiply both sides by 3

14 = s/3

3*14 = 3*(s/3)

42 = s

s = 42

-------

As a check,

14 = s/3

14 = 42/3 .... replace s with 42

14 = 14

We get the same thing on both sides, so this confirms we have the correct value of s.
