Mixed Fraction Product Poser (Posted on 2022-05-03) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Complete the multiplication given below:
                3      3      ##
              #--- * 2--- = 14---
                7      #      14
where each hash(#) represents a digit, whether same or different.
Note: Numerator is strictly less than the denominator. Accordingly, fractions like: (7+7/3) or (8+11/11) are NOT permissible.

       b=sym(b0);
       for c0=10:13
         c=sym(c0);
         lhs=(a+sym(3)/7)*(2+3/b);
         rhs=14+c/14;
         if lhs==rhs
           disp([a b c])
