1. **State the problem:** Given the equation where $y=14$ when $x=5$, find $x$ when $y=28$.
2. **Identify the relationship:** Since $y$ changes with $x$, assume a direct proportionality: $y = kx$ where $k$ is a constant.
3. **Find the constant $k$:** Using the known values,
$$14 = k \times 5$$
Divide both sides by 5:
$$k = \frac{14}{5}$$
4. **Use $k$ to find $x$ when $y=28$:**
$$28 = \frac{14}{5} \times x$$
Divide both sides by $\frac{14}{5}$:
$$x = \frac{28}{\frac{14}{5}}$$
Rewrite division as multiplication by reciprocal:
$$x = 28 \times \frac{5}{14}$$
Simplify:
$$x = \cancel{28} \times \frac{5}{\cancel{14}} = 2 \times 5 = 10$$
5. **Final answer:** When $y=28$, $x=10$.
