4l = 7s
\n" ); document.write( "l + s = 22
\n" ); document.write( "l = 22 - s
\n" ); document.write( "4(22 - s) = 7s
\n" ); document.write( "88 - 4s = 7s
\n" ); document.write( "88 = 11s
\n" ); document.write( "s = 8
\n" ); document.write( "l = 14
\n" ); document.write( "check
\n" ); document.write( "4(14) = 7(8)
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 7
\n" ); document.write( "8 = 8
\n" ); document.write( "OK
\n" ); document.write( "
