Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x + y - 8}{2} = \frac{x + 2y - 14}{3} = \frac{3 x + y - 12}{11} \\ \\ \frac{(x + y - 8) \times 33}{2 \times 33}= \frac{(x + 2y - 14) \times 22}{3 \times 22} ) = \frac{(3 x + y - 12) \times 6}{11 \times 6}) \\ \\ \frac{33x + 33y - 264}{66} = \frac{22x + 44y - 308}{66} = \frac{18x + 6y - 72}{66} \\ \\cancelling \: \: denominators \: \: ---[since \: \: denominators \: \: are \: \: same] \\ \\ 33x + 33y - 264 = 22x + 44y - 308 = 18x + 6y - 72 \\ \\ 33x - 22x - 18x = 44y - 33y - 6y = - 72 + 308 + 264 \\ \\ - 7x = 5y = 500$
