\"If a number is added to 3 more than 5 times itself the result is 30\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = the number\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x + 5x + 3 = 30 {a number added to 5 more than three times itself equals 30}
\n" ); document.write( "6x + 3 = 30 {combined like terms}
\n" ); document.write( "6x = 27 {subtracted 3 from both sides}
\n" ); document.write( "x = 27/6 {divided both sides by 6}
\n" ); document.write( "= 9/2 {reduced}
\n" ); document.write( "= 4 1/2 {wrote as a mixed number}
