2400X+1800(21-X)=48000
\n" ); document.write( "2400X+37,800-1800X=48,000
\n" ); document.write( "600X=48,000-37,800
\n" ); document.write( "600X=10,200
\n" ); document.write( "X=10,200/600
\n" ); document.write( "X=17 PAGES OF SMALL PRINT.
\n" ); document.write( "21-17=4 PAGES OF LARGE PRINT.
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF:
\n" ); document.write( "2400*17+1800*4*=48,000
\n" ); document.write( "40,800+7,200=48,000
