$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{72}{5}-\frac{28}{30} &= 0&& \text{multiply ALL terms by } \color{blue}{ 30 }. \\[1 em]30\cdot\frac{72}{5}-30\cdot\frac{28}{30} &= 30\cdot0&& \text{cancel out the denominators} \\[1 em]432-28 &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]404 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ 404 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
