Actually, both are correct:
\n" ); document.write( "Why? because:
\n" ); document.write( "\"abs%28b-360%29+%3C=+6\" Where b is the number of golf balls. Solve this for b.
\n" ); document.write( "\"b-360++%3C=+6\" or \"b-360+%3E=+-6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"b+%3C=+366\" or \"b+%3E=+354\" which can be written as:
\n" ); document.write( "\"354+%3C=+b+%3C=+366\" which is identical to:
\n" ); document.write( "\"354+%3C=+x+%3C=+366\" if you replace b with x.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
