Let
\n" ); document.write( "Water bills=x
\n" ); document.write( "Phone bills costs four times as much as the water bill = 4x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Sum of bills = Total Cost
\n" ); document.write( "x+4x=540
\n" ); document.write( "5x=540
\n" ); document.write( "x=540/5
\n" ); document.write( "x=108
\n" ); document.write( "water bills = 108
\n" ); document.write( "Phone bills=Total cost - water bills cost
\n" ); document.write( "Phone bills=540 - 108
\n" ); document.write( "Phone bills=432
\n" ); document.write( "
