Let x be the number of seats in theatre 1
\n" ); document.write( "Then theatre 2 is \"x+%2B+180\"
\n" ); document.write( "And theatre 3 is \"2x-60\"
\n" ); document.write( "You are told the total seat count is 800
\n" ); document.write( "\"800+=+x+%2B+%28x%2B180%29+%2B+%282x-60%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"800+=+4x+%2B+120\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"680+=+4x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"170+=+x\"
\n" ); document.write( "theatre 1 is 170 seats
\n" ); document.write( "theatre 2 is \"x%2B180+=+170%2B180+=+350\"
\n" ); document.write( "theatre 3 is \"2x-60+=+2%2A170+-+60+=+340-60=280\"
\n" ); document.write( "Check your answer
