\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Fact: (total weight)/(total number) = average weight
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "First 10 children:
\n" ); document.write( "total weight/10 = 88
\n" ); document.write( "total weight = 880
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "Addinging 2 more children:
\n" ); document.write( "total weight = (880+95+93) = 1068 lbs
\n" ); document.write( "---
