Remember: $\"P%5Brect%5D=2%28L%2BW%29\"$ --------------> working eqn
\n" ); document.write( " $\"L=2W%2B3yards\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"W=W\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"P%5Brect%5D=36yards\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So, $\"P%5Brect%5D=2%282W%2B3%2BW%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"36=2%283W%2B3%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"36=6W%2B6\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"6W=36-6=30\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"cross%286%29W%2Fcross%286%29=cross%2830%295%2Fcross%286%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"W=5yards\"$
\n" ); document.write( "And, $\"L=2%285%29%2B3=10%2B3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"L=13yards\"$
\n" ); document.write( "In doubt? Go back working eqn,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"36yards=2%2813%2B5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"36yards=2%2818%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"36yards=36yards\"$
