To find the number that must replace x and y for the three fractions to become equivalent, we need to set up an equation using cross-multiplication.
Cross-multiplying the first two fractions, we get:
6 * 7 = 14 * x
42 = 14x
Simplifying the equation, we find that x = 3.
Now, cross-multiplying the second and third fractions, we get:
x * y = 24 * 7
xy = 168
Since we know x = 3, we can substitute it into the equation:
3y = 168
y = 168/3
y = 56
Therefore, the number that must replace x is 3 and the number that must replace y is 56. Answer: \boxed{3, 56}.

Convert 5 8/12 to an improper fraction. Write your answer in Simplest form.
(1 point)
To convert the mixed number 5 8/12 to an improper fraction, we need to first multiply the whole number by the denominator of the fraction and then add the numerator.
5 multiplied by 12 is 60, and then adding 8 gives us 68/12.
However, we can simplify this fraction further. Both the numerator and denominator have a common factor of 4. Dividing both by 4, we get 17/3.
Therefore, 5 8/12 as an improper fraction in simplest form is 17/3. Answer: \boxed{17/3}.
