You can put this solution on YOUR website!
I'd say the first thing you need to do is multiply by 100x.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28100x-4000%29%2F100x+=+.3\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"100x-4000+=+30x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"-4000+=+-70x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+4000%2F70+=+400%2F7\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Your answer is $\"400%2F7\"$ or $\"57.1\"$ if you need it in decimal form. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
