We are required to solve the equation for t.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28t-a%29%2F%28a%29+%2B%28t-b%29%2F%28b%29+=1\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"b%28t-a%29%2Ba%28t-b%29=ab\"$ ................ multiply both sides by ab
\n" ); document.write( " $\"bt+-ab%2Bat-ab=ab\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"bt%2Bat=3ab\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28a%2Bb%29t=3ab\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"t=%283ab%29%2F%28a%2Bb%29\"$ ............. divide both sides by (a+b)
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
