\n" ); document.write( " is added to the product. Whats the number?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let n = \"a number\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "6(2n + 7) = 7n + 12
\n" ); document.write( "12n + 42 = 7n + 12
\n" ); document.write( "12n - 7n = 12 - 42
\n" ); document.write( "5n = -30
