D=rt (distance or goal = rate * time)
\n" ); document.write( "64 walls = 2.3 walls * x hours
\n" ); document.write( " $\"64=2.3%2Ax\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"64%2F2.3=x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=27.83\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Thus you know it takes: 1 day, 3 hours and 50 minutes to paint 64 walls. \n" ); document.write( "
