t = d/r (time = distance/rate)
\n" ); document.write( "The distance to and from the cemetery (no a in cemetery) is obviously the same.
\n" ); document.write( "7 = d/8 + d/6
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply by 48
\n" ); document.write( "336 = 6d + 8d = 14d
\n" ); document.write( "d = 24 miles
\n" ); document.write( "
