\n" ); document.write( "multiplying both sides by 30:
\n" ); document.write( "x(5 + 6) = 30
\n" ); document.write( "11x = 30
\n" ); document.write( "x = 30/11
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2.73 hours
\n" ); document.write( "or
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2 hours and 44 minutes \n" ); document.write( "
