\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "g + y = 10 marbles
\n" ); document.write( "g = 2y
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for \"g\" and solve for \"y\":
\n" ); document.write( "2y + y = 10
\n" ); document.write( "3y = 10
\n" ); document.write( "y = 3 1/3 (# of yellow marbles)
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
