\n" ); document.write( "saturday + sunday = 69\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+%2B+%28+9+%2B+%282%2F3%29x+%29+=+69+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%283x+%2B+2x%29%2F3+=+69+-+9+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+5x+=+60+%2A+3+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+5x+=+180+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+x+=+36+\"\r
