\n" ); document.write( "A total of 168 units is planned, and the number of family units (2 and 3-bedroom townhouses) will equal the number of one-bedroom units.
\n" ); document.write( "If the number of one-bedroom units will be 3 times the number of three-bedroom units\"highlight%28x%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "one-bedroom units: \"highlight%283x%29\" units or 84 Units
\n" ); document.write( "two-bedroom townhouses\"highlight%282x%29\" units or 56 Units
\n" ); document.write( "three-bedroom townhouses \"highlight%28x%29\" units or 28 Units
\n" ); document.write( " 6x = 168, x = 28 \n" ); document.write( "
