You can put this solution on YOUR website!
let one part be x
\n" ); document.write( "let the other part be y
\n" ); document.write( "then x = 3y, say
\n" ); document.write( "Also,
\n" ); document.write( "116 = x + y
\n" ); document.write( "substitute for x = 3y into the above eqn
\n" ); document.write( "116 = 3y + y
\n" ); document.write( "116 = 4y
\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides by 4,
\n" ); document.write( "29 = y
\n" ); document.write( "y = 29
\n" ); document.write( "======
\n" ); document.write( "x = 87 (87 = 3*29)
\n" ); document.write( "======
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
