You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"%28x%2B5%29%2F%284%29=5\"$ is the same thing as $\"%28x%2B5%29%2F%284%29=%285%2F1%29\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So you then cross multiply:
\n" ); document.write( "(x+5)*(1) = (4)*(5)
\n" ); document.write( "x+5=20\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Divide by 5 on both sides:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28x%2B5%29%2F%285%29=+%2820%29%2F%285%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "x=4\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Answer: x=4\r
