\r\n" );
document.write( "This is an unusual use of an equal sign =, because those\r\n" );
document.write( "are certainly not equal under the normal use of equal signs.\r\n" );
document.write( "I will assume you mean that\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "4+6+5 corresponds to 242038 and\r\n" );
document.write( "3+8+9 corresponds to 242743\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "And the question is,\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "What does 7+9+4 correspond to?\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Now 4+6+5 = 15, which corresponds to 242038,\r\n" );
document.write( "and 3+8+9 = 20, which corresponds to 242743.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So since 7+9+4 = 20 also, it must also correspond to the same number \r\n" );
document.write( "which 3+8+9 corresponds to.  So the answer is also 242743.\r\n" );
