\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.2x + 0.4y = 1.7 ....eqn 1
\n" ); document.write( "8.3x - 6.3y = -4.3.....eqn 2
\n" ); document.write( "multiply both eqns by 10
\n" ); document.write( "so
\n" ); document.write( "2x+4y=17 ......eqn 3
\n" ); document.write( "83x-63y=-43 ...eqn 4
\n" ); document.write( "multiply eqn 3 by 83 & eqn 4 by 2 7 subtract
\n" ); document.write( "166x+332y=1411
\n" ); document.write( "166x-126y=-86
\n" ); document.write( "- + +
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( " 458y=1497 => y=1497/458=3.27
\n" ); document.write( "from eqn 3 x=(17-4x3.27)/2=1.96
\n" ); document.write( "ans upto 2 decimals
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
