\n" );
document.write( "-2/5(10c + 15)=10 
\n" );
document.write( "Mulitplying boh sides of the equation by 5 so as all denominators = 1
\n" );
document.write( "-2(10c + 15) = 50
\n" );
document.write( "Applying distributive principle
\n" );
document.write( "-20c -30 = 50
\n" );
document.write( "-20c = 80
\n" );
document.write( "c = -4\r
