grasshoppers will call g and crickets c\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "g+c=561
\n" ); document.write( "g=2c\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "take g's value in 2nd equation and plug it into the 1st equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"%282c%29%2Bc=561\"---->\"3c=561\" \"c=187\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so g=2(187)=374\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so 374 grasshoppers and 187 crickets
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
