document.write( "The common denominator is 3, so we multiply every term through by 3:
\n" );
document.write( "\"3%2A%282A%2F3%29=3%2A8%2B3%2A4A\"

document.write( "Now the 3's cancel on the left and we have
\n" );

\n" );
document.write( "Now we subtract 12A from both sides
\n" );
document.write( "  \"2A-12A+=+24\"

document.write( "combine the 2A and the -12A on the left, getting -10A

document.write( "Now we divide both sides by -10 to get A:
