If W = the number of women, then 620-W = the number men (M), and W+M = 620, and W = M+20 so...
\n" ); document.write( "W+M = 620 and W = M+20 or M = W-20, so...
\n" ); document.write( "W+(W-20) = 620
\n" ); document.write( "2W-20 = 620 Add 20 to both sides.
\n" ); document.write( "2W = 640 Divide both sides by 2.
\n" ); document.write( "W = 320 and M = 300
\n" ); document.write( "The number of women is 320.
\n" ); document.write( "
