\huge\text{Hey there!}


\huge\textsf{28 - 4a = 3a - 14 + 2a}


\huge\boxed{\rightarrow}\huge\textsf{ 28 - 4a = 5a - 14}


\huge\boxed{\rightarrow}}\huge\textsf{ -4a + 28 = 5a - 14}


\huge\text{SUBTRACT \underline{\underline{5a}} to BOTH SIDES}


\huge\textsf{-4a + 28 - 5a = 5a - 14 - 5a}


\huge\boxed{\rightarrow}\huge\textsf{ -9a + 28 = -14}


\huge\text{SUBTRACT \underline{\underline{28}} to BOTH SIDES}


\huge\textsf{-9a + 28 - 28 = -14 - 28}


\huge\boxed{\rightarrow}}\huge\textsf{ -9a = -42}


\huge\text{DIVIDE \underline{\underline{-9}} to BOTH SIDES}


\huge\boxed{\mathsf{(-9a)/(-9)=(-42)/(-9)}}


\huge\boxed{\rightarrow}\huge\boxed{\star\ \mathsf{\ a = (14)/(3)}\ \star}


\huge\boxed{\mathsf{Therefore, your \ answer\ is: a = \bf (14)/(3) }}\huge\checkmark
