let the number be x\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, one side is 5x-3
\n" ); document.write( "and other side is x/3 + 67\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So, 5x-3 = x/3 + 67
\n" ); document.write( "5x = x/3 + 70
\n" ); document.write( "15x = x + 210
\n" ); document.write( "14x = 210
\n" ); document.write( "x = 210/14
\n" ); document.write( "x = 15\r
