You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let x = number of faculty members total.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "30% of x = 18\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.3x = 18\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = 18/0.3\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x = 60\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So there are 60 faculty members total.\r
