3D+14G=203(11)    use elimination      33D+154G=2233
11D+11G=220(-14)   to cancel G   -154D-154G=-3080
                                      
                                     -121D=-847   divide by -121 on both sides
                                         D=7     plug back into equation
11(7)+11G=220
77+11G=220   subtract 77 from both sides
11G=143 divide by 11 on both sides
G=13
