1st condition: By Ratio:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Green%2FBlack=Gn%2FBl=5%2F2\"
\n" ); document.write( "2nd Condition:
\n" ); document.write( "800,000(Gn)+1,100,000(Bl)=18,600,000
\n" ); document.write( "Via 1st Condtn we get:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Gn=%285%2F2%29Bl\" ---> 3rd Condition, susbt. in 2nd Contn.:
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "800,000(5/2)Bl+1,100,000(Bl)=18,600,000
\n" ); document.write( "2,000,000(Bl)+1,100,000(Bl)=18,600,000
\n" ); document.write( "3,100,000(Bl)=18,600,000, Isolate \"Black\" by dividing both terms 3,100,0000
\n" ); document.write( "\"cross%283100000%29%28Bl%29%2Fcross%283100000%29=cross%2818600000%296%2Fcross%283100000%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28Bl=6%29\" ---> number of Black jeeps
\n" ); document.write( "Via condition 3:
\n" ); document.write( "\"Gn=%285%2F2%29%286%29=30%2F2=highlight%2815=Gn%29\" ---> number of Green Jeeps
\n" ); document.write( "In doubt? Go back Condtn. 2 (amount of fuel consumed):
\n" ); document.write( "\"800000%2815%29%2B1100000%286%29=18600000\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"12000000%2B6600000=18600000\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"18600000=18600000\", good
