You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"n%2F7=8\"$ and $\"s%2F8=13\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Don't worry, these are relatively easy; we have to remember that what we do to one side we must do to the other. In the first equation, we want N by itself (because whatever's on the other side of the equal sign will be the answer for n)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"n%2F7=8\"$ Notice that if we multiply both sides by 7, the equation simplifies to $\"n%2F7%2A7=8%2A7\"$ . The statement is still true; and it can be tried with any numbers a, b and x such a=b. a*x*b*x. For example, 2+3 is a, and 5 is b. a=b because 2+3=5. Now let's multiply by 5. 5(2+3)=5(5): simplify to 5(5)=5(5) or 25=25; if we keep doing what we do to one side to the other also, we'll be fine.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"n%2F7%2A7=8%2A7\"$ simplifies to $\"%287n%29%2F7=56\"$ simplifies to $\"n=56\"$ , and n (56) is the answer.
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "Same with the second equation:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"s%2F8=13\"$ so $\"s%2F8%2A8=13%2A8\"$ so $\"s=104\"$ . Hope this helped, email or im for questions. \n" ); document.write( "
