Assume it should read:
\n" ); document.write( "A 67,500 estate is to be split among four children and a grandchild.
\n" ); document.write( " Each child gets the same amount, and the grandchild gets half the amount.
\n" ); document.write( " How much will each receive?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let x = amt received by the grandchild
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "2x = amt received by the children
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "x + 4(2x) = 67500
\n" ); document.write( "x + 8x = 67500
\n" ); document.write( "9x = 67500
\n" ); document.write( "x = \"67500%2F9\"
\n" ); document.write( "x = $7500 received by the grandchild
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "2(7500) = $15000 received the the children
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Check 4(15000) + 7500 = 67500
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
