\"c%2F7=9\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\r\n" );
document.write( "You multiply both sides by \"%287%29\".  Since \"%287%29\" and \"%287%2F1%29\"\r\n" );
document.write( "are the same I'll use \"%287%2F1%29\" on the left side and \"%287%29\" on\r\n" );
document.write( "the right\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"expr%28c%2F7%29%287%2F1%29+=+9%2A%287%29\"\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Now cancel the 7's on the left, and multiply 9*7 on the right.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\"expr%28c%2Fcross%287%29%29%28cross%287%29%2F1%29+=+63\"\r\n" );
