You say to yourself: "If I have 12 of anything, and somebody takes away 14 of
the same thing, that leaves me owing him two, and that's the same thing as
having -2 of them left."

If you mean: 12a+14a-4 then it can be simplified to 26a-4
12a
12a = 48 Divide both sides by 12 to find the value of a: a = 4
12a-a = 11a
