k = j/2,
\n" ); document.write( "c = 4k,
\n" ); document.write( "k + c + j = 476.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "From the 1st equation, j = 2k. Substituting this and the 2nd equation into the 3rd equation, we get k + 4k + 2k = 476.
\n" ); document.write( "==> 7k = 476, or k = 68 miles driven by kyle,
\n" ); document.write( "j = 2*68 = 136 miles driven by jamaal, and
\n" ); document.write( "c = 4*68 = 272 miles driven by connor.
