Revision history of "Points $A$, $B$, $C$, and $D$ lie on a line, in that order. If $AB=2$ units, $BC=5$ units and $AD=14$ units, what is the ratio of $AC$ to $BD$? Express your answer as a common fraction."

Diff selection: Mark the radio boxes of the revisions to compare and hit enter or the button at the bottom.
Legend: (cur) = difference with latest revision, (prev) = difference with preceding revision, m = minor edit.
