\n" ); document.write( "---------------------
\n" ); document.write( "m + w + c = 132
\n" ); document.write( "c = 3m
\n" ); document.write( "w = 2m
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute and solve for \"m\"
\n" ); document.write( "m + 2m + 3m = 132
\n" ); document.write( "6m = 132
\n" ); document.write( "m = 22 (# of men)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "c = 3m = 66 (# of children)
\n" ); document.write( "---
