\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------
\n" ); document.write( "weight training calories: x
\n" ); document.write( "aerobic calories::::::::: (12/5)x
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "x + (12/5)x = 374
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 5 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "5x + 12x = 5*374
\n" ); document.write( "17x = 5*374
\n" ); document.write( "x = 110 calories (from weight training)
