Actually, I believe the equation is: $\"5%2A%283+%2B+2N%29+=+85\"$
\n" ); document.write( "so, starting with $\"5%2A%283+%2B+2N%29+=+85\"$ , divide both sides by 5
\n" ); document.write( " $\"3+%2B+2N+=+17\"$ subtract 3 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2N+=+14\"$ divide both sides by 2
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%28N+=+7%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
