Let the number be n. Convert 1 1/4 to an improper fraction, 5/4, then:
\n" ); document.write( "\"5%2F4%29n+=+1%2F3\" Multiply both sides by \"4%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%285%2F4%29%2A%284%2F5%29n+=+%281%2F3%29%2A%284%2F5%29\" Evaluate.
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28n+=+4%2F15%29\" This is the number.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
